Niofar, is a visual poem which tells the story of a young woman's stay in Senegal where she hopes to find her place in the community. This personal film is a metaphor of the amazing and unique experience lived by Hugo's brother, Colin Lemant. He lived for one year at Grand Mbao, a small village of Senegal. There, he shared the day to day life of the villagers, becoming totally integrated, learning the local language, giving himself and investing himself totally to them. Thanks to Colin, the rushes taken in Grand Mbao have a powerful strength of truth has they have been taken from the closest point you can get of the community. The characters are not disturbed by a foreign presence et forget the camera. The portraits the film depicts are fixed in authentic moments of life.
