SYNOPSIS

In the early 19th century, Jacques François Roger built a castle in Senegal and developed the fields of an experimental farm around it. The madness of a dream of conquest and domination intertwined with a conception of agriculture as a strategy of occupation. The farm became a fort, and the place of conflicts between settlers and chiefs of the Waalo kingdom, until the colonization of Senegal. Despite occupation, the plants, the Waalo and the soil resist.
