Wambi Georges is a musician of warba, the mossi popular dance. Passionate about music, he refused to do another job. Tired of this life, his wife, Rasmata, left him. Georges, who only knows life in his village, decides to try his luck in the city, despite his friend Issa's advice to the contrary. But he quickly becomes disillusioned: he can't make a living from his music and finds himself in prison. After his release, he met a producer who decided to help him. George then became a star.... He returns to the village to win back his wife, but his friend Issa welcomes him with bad news. Another adventure begins for him.
