Filmed in Mauritania in 2014. The city of Timbuktu has fallen into the hands of religious extremists. Kidane lives quietly in the dunes with his wife, his daughter Toya and Issam, a 12-year-old shepherd. But city dwellers suffer the reign of terror imposed by the jihadists: banned music, laughing, smoking and even play football. Women have become shadows that try to resist with dignity. Each day, some Islamists launch makeshift court judgments as absurd as tragic. In Arabic with Spanish subtitles.
