| The African Film Festival National Traveling Series has been organized by the African Film Festival, Inc. This series has been made possible by the generous support of National Endowments for the Arts, the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts, New York State Council on the Arts and the Tides Foundation. Synopsis Hortense, a 40-year old nurse originally from the Ivory Coast, leaves her family for her lover, Jean-Paul, an oyster farmer in the area of Bordeaux. Her husband, a macho, very traditional man, sees his whole world turn upside down. Suddenly, he finds himself raising their two younger children on his own, and, to his horror, discovers that his third son, a handsome young man, is homosexual. The arrival of beautiful Amina, the lonely neighbor, and of Malik’s sisters in law from Adidjan, provokes some surprising twists. |
