Daam, an idealistic Senegalese politician, returns to his village after studying abroad, torn between tradition and modernity. Married to the loyal Gagnesiri, who cannot bear children, he takes a second wife, the ambitious Kiné. As Daam’s career rises, Kiné’s greed leads to his downfall through betrayal and scandal.
