In an early 19th century African village, Wend Kuuni – a young man, lives with his adopted family after his mother was killed as a witch. When Pughneere – his adopted sister – becomes ill, the villagers suspect Wend Kuuni. In order to save Pughneere's life (and his own) he must set out on a journey to find a healer. His quest brings him in contact with people around him and is a journey of self-discovery.

Un jeune garçon recueilli dans la brousse burkinabée, se lie d’amitié avec sa soeur adoptive et retrouve la parole. Un film de référence qui fait beaucoup pour la renommée du cinéma africain.
