Film Synopsis

When he was ten years old, Patrick, a West Indian, was sent by his mother to study in France.  Thirty years later, he is a distinguished historian, proud of his achievements and so well-integrated into French society that he has almost lost sight of his racial origins.  On hearing that his mother is at death's door, Patrick immediately heads off for Martinique with his daughter and arrives at the height of the carnival season.  For three days, accompanied by his childhood friend Zamba, Patrick will coast on a wave of emotion and madness.  These three days will change his life forever...
