My father died eight years ago, and yet he ceaselessly appears in my dreams. He sends me messages that I sometimes manage to decipher. He is worried about the fact that my family is disuniting over a plot of land he sold before his death. In order to bring peace to his soul, Peul tradition recommends that we sacrifice a cow. I head off for the Fouta Djalon in Guinea for this sacrifice, during which I try to reconnect with my brothers and sisters as well as with my aunt and uncles.

Mon père est mort il y a huit ans, et pourtant, il ne cesse de m'apparaître en rêve. Il me transmet des messages que j'arrive parfois à décoder. Il est inquiet du fait que ma famille soit divisée à cause d'un terrain qu'il avait vendu avant sa mort. Pour que son âme repose en paix, la tradition Peule recommande le sacrifice d'une vache. Je pars dans le Fouta Djalon, en Guinée, pour ce sacrifice au cours duquel je tenterai de rétablir les liens avec mes frères et soeurs, ainsi qu'avec ma tante et mes oncles.
