A car drives to a Moroccan village. On board, Maïne and her family surround the father’s coffin. Tomorrow, the men will bury him and the women will wait at home. But the young girl takes a very dim view on it and intends to lead with her father to his final resting place.
Un’auto si dirige verso un villaggio marocchino. A bordo, Maïne e la sua famiglia circondano la bara del padre. Domani, gli uomini lo seppelliranno e le donne aspetteranno a casa. Ma la giovane non la prende affatto bene e intende guidare con suo padre fino al suo ultimo luogo di riposo.
