Dane, a driver for an NGO in N’Djamena (capital of Chad), has the misfortune to run over a schoolboy. His pregnant wife runs to his aid to pay the hospital bills, but it’s too late: the child succumbs to his injuries, and his family summons Dane’s. He will be subjected to the diya, the blood debt, the payment of an exorbitant sum he doesn’t have.
