On a beach, in summer, 12-year-old Abel is ashamed of his father's body, which is ravaged by cancer.

In Réunion Creole, Misouk means "in secret." Marie, under her father's control, is irresistibly drawn to Maloya, the ancestral music of Réunion. Despite repeated violence, she will defy the prohibitions and discover a family secret that will change everything.

Maine and her family are accompanying her father’s coffin to the small Moroccan village where he is to be buried. Tomorrow, the men will take the body to the cemetery while the women, in accordance with tradition, wait at home. That is not something Maine can accept, however. She is determined to go with her father to his final resting place.
