Oskar lives in a foster family since his parent’s death. The teenager impatiently waits for one thing only: the day of his majority, when he will be able to fly away toward Africa and escape from his omnipresent guardian. However, the latter has different goals and will do everything in his power to put his protégé back on the right track. The disagreement between the mentor and his ward will progressively spread chaos.
