Hence little Kirikou decides, he will accompany the last warrior to the sorceress. Due to his intrepidity he may be the last hope of the village.

Sheriff
“No more smirking. We're stopping the bullshit right now and staying put.” The regular army is preparing to reestablish order in the country. To clean up. To eliminate the rebel officer also known as The Boxer and rid the countryside of roving child soldiers. All the expatriates have gone home, getting out before things turn nasty. Of the Vials - coffee planters who have lived here for two generations - Maria (Isabelle Huppert) stands firm. She’s not about to give in to rumours or abandon her harvest at the first sound of gunfire. Just like her father-in-law and her ex-husband (Christopher Lambert) who is also the father of her son (a little too much of a slacker in her opinion) she is convinced that Sherif ( William Nadylam), mayor of the neighbouring town, will protect them. If she asks him, he will save the plantation. He has a personal guard, a private militia of tough guys, heavily armed and well trained.

From Claire Denis, the incomparable director of BEAU TRAVAIL, L'INTRUS and 35 SHOTS OF RHUM, comes WHITE MATERIAL: a rich and thrilling account of a woman driven to the edge. An official selection of the Venice, Toronto and New York Film Festivals, the film is a riveting exploration of the complexities of racial conflict and the limits of human will. The legendary Isabelle Huppert (LA CEREMONIE, THE PIANO TEACHER, 8 WOMEN), is Maria Vial, a fearless French woman attempting to run her family's coffee plantation in an unnamed African country. Torn violently apart by hate-fueled civil conflict, this unforgiving setting soon turns against the foreign family, declaring them outlaws in their new home. In a brash effort to save her family and livelihood, Maria risks everything, fighting with every shred of her will to buck the rebel forces wrestling for control of local power.

Press:
"L’Absence s’impose ainsi comme un polar résolument collé au plus près d’un des premiers matériaux du genre (les névroses humaines), moins fenêtre sociologique que fenêtre sur ce que le refoulé fait faire aux hommes. Et de la noirceur visible et enfouie, il tire incarnation et noblesse."
"Mama Keita signe un film puissant, entre thriller et drame familial."
