Carnets d'un grand détour
From Gibraltar to Bamako. If you were to were to walk all the way, what sort of encounters would be in store for you ? Would the routes of different migrations cross ? Would the path between thousands of people going in the opposite direction have its meaning revealed ? this is the quest undertaken by the director, who brings us along on a journey through the Africa she loves, during several months. She is not alone : the trail is blazed by a public reader who is walking with his donkey/library on a pilgrimage to his birthplace. The stories that intertwine on the road all belong to the same history : the encounter with the Other - each one a matter of chance, each one a matter of a small miracle.
