Bienvenue chez les Berton

As they do every year, Aura and Sylvain Berton gather their loved ones to celebrate the independence of Côte d'Ivoire. When one of the guests asks them to tell the legend of Princess Pokou, the evening takes a dramatic turn.

By embodying the characters of this ancestral tale, each person reveals their own vision of love, power, sacrifice, family, and freedom. Gradually, the boundary between legend and reality blurs. Certainties waver, marital tensions burst into the open, and an unexpected announcement forces Aura and Sylvain to make a decision neither was ready to face.
