Description
An entire people prepares to flee, inventing an elsewhere for themselves in the absence of a future. Leaving is a myth that no one escapes. At Ayizan, a chic restaurant in Pétion-Ville, journeys are made and unmade. Lucie serves customers during the day and sells her body at night. Maritou flees the hatred of Jeannette and the pity of Clémence, her half-sisters. She vomits up her anguish and her solitude until she meets Lucie. They tame each other until they love each other. An elsewhere of one's own, a mirror where illusions and wishes of departure are woven.
