Funny and moving portrait of François Mantuila, the great jazzman who, after living 32 years in the US and working with the greatest musicians, returns to Congo his home country where he no longer has points of reference. He passed away before the end of filming, willing to pass on his knowledge to the younger generation of guitarists, but ran out of time.
