This film is based on the testimony of Akosse Legba, the psydonym of a 32 year-old togolese woman, who was a victim of modern slavery in France. It portrays a memory in reconstruction. Bits of memories from Togo, from her young years until her arrival in France. Her documents taken away from her, an apartment, her identity denied every day, and her will to start over, all told through her voice. This testimony narrates her path, the path of woman that has always been alone, as far as she remembers.
