Khalilou, a young student who, after his mother contracts cancer linked to depigmentation, decides to denounce dangerous beauty standards. To do this, he disguises himself as Leila and participates in the "Miss Students" competition, dominated by light skin, in order to allow dark-skinned young women to shine. This film addresses themes of self-esteem, identity and the fight against prejudice with humor and emotion.
