The Color Of Exile

In a remote Senegalese village, Ousmane, a young albino, faces daily insults and threats fueled by deep-rooted superstitions. Driven by the promise of a better life, they venture into the vast desert. Under a relentless sun, mother and son draw strength from their unwavering bond to keep going. With each dune they cross, new dangers arise: dehydration, exhaustion, and the growing menace of ruthless smugglers. Their journey takes them across the desert, through Moroccan spiritual brotherhoods, and into the perils of crossing into Europe. This vibrant narrative invites reflection on the human condition and on each individual’s place in a constantly evolving world, where difference can be a source of rejection or shared enrichment.
