Sexe, Gombo et Beurre Sale

France 2008

Hortense, a 40-year old nurse from the Ivory Coast, leaves her family for her lover,
Jean-Paul, an oyster farmer. Malik, a macho and a very traditional man, sees his whole world turn upside down and stays behind with his children to discover that his oldest son is homosexual. The arrival of beautiful Amina, the lonely neighbor, and of Malik’s sisters in law from Adidjan, provokes quite a few surprising turns. A fresh look at the African community in Bordeaux.
