“An exciting film set against the backdrop of one of the biggest environmental scandals in Côte d’Ivoire, which passed silently in 2006: the dumping of toxic waste in the capital.”
Fabian, a quiet guard, was killed at the foot of the building where he worked. His death appears to be linked to the arrival of the Bateaux Bleu at the port of Abidjan with tons of toxic waste in its tanks. A double disaster in the city that is suffocating with the epidemic odor that burns the nostrils and eats away the bodies.
Through the painful silence of his loved ones, and the images and words spoken by the dead man himself, this novel offers an investigation into the entirety of Ivorian society. (an offer Nimba Editions)
