In contemporary Senegal, the story begins with the death of Pierre Henri Thioune, known as Guelwaar, a charismatic Christian activist and outspoken critic of government corruption, foreign aid, and social injustice. After his death, a mistake leads to Guelwaar's body being buried in a Muslim cemetery, triggering tension between Christian and Muslim communities. As his family seeks to recover the body for a proper burial, the situation exposes deep-seated political hypocrisy, social divisions, and administrative incompetence. Through investigations into Guelwaar's life and speeches, the film reveals his fierce opposition to dependency on Western aid, which he denounces as a form of modern domination that robs African societies of dignity and self-reliance.
