SYNOPSIS
They were called fahavalo, “enemies”, as they rebelled against French colonial authorities in 1947, only armed with spears and talismans. The film is a journey across Madagascar in search of the last witnesses of a long forgotten rebellion.
A Madagascar en 1947, les rebelles insurgés contre le système colonial sont appelés fahavalo, «ennemis» de la France. Les derniers témoins évoquent leurs longs mois de résistance dans la forêt, armés seulement de sagaies et de talismans.
