This is a a very pleasant film. It portrays an Congolese doctor, and his family that immigrate to Marly-Gomont in la France profounde and the struggles they face. It is not a dark tale of racism, but it does portray a genuine family's struggle with genuine prejudice. The film is vivid in its cinematographic contrasts. The grim and somber scene at the armistice memorial when the colorful loud Congolese family arrives is a cringe-worthy example. The rain and gray are disrupted by color, in this case African.
The end of the film is wonderfully satisfying as well.
