    • Synopsis
    • The story of Frenchman Raymond Borremans, who left Europe for Africa in the mid-20th century and devoted his life to the creation of the first encyclopaedia of this new world. But, by the time of his death, he has only reached the letter N. His restless spirit now drifts around West Africa, caught between life and death, the past and the present. An African woman who helps restless spirits find peace tries to lead him towards his destiny, but his encyclopaedic mind finds the contingencies of reality less easy to cope with.
