- Synopsis
- Gérard Muller, who went blind in the prime of life, teaches us to see the world differently by dint of energy and generosity.
  In this movie, Burkina Faso as well as the cycling race « Etoile de Ouaga » are both backdrops for sport and human adventures. Destinies interwine with one only motivation: to see beyond prejudice. Even if Gerard, with his inexhaustible energy, lies in the heart of the story, there is also Oumar, a little blind boy living in Burkina Faso who definitely gives a particular shade to the narration.
  Familiar with crossing countries in order to open his mind and to escape isolation, Gérard Muller has decided to travel to Burkina Faso and has found himself embarked on a new human adventure: help Oumar to go to France to l’Hôpital des Quinze-Vingts in Paris so that the little boy can be taken care of and hope for a surgery that could change his life.
