Codou, Fary, and Baye Zale reflect each day on the journey they have traveled. Behind their lives lies the silent struggle of a mother: Kéwé, widowed far too soon.

Through her memories, Fary sees and experiences the reflection of this exceptional mother who transformed her tears into courage and her hardships into hope.
