From Father Joffroy to Brother Rosaire
52' - 2024 - Lukarn - Kwanza
Synopsis
Evangelizing on African soil has long been the mission of the Spiritans.
On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the parish of Oussouye, in Casamance (southern Senegal), Father Joffroy's letters revive memories of the first baptized.
In this very traditional region, where the kings are still the guarantors of the spiritual values of Diola society, Catholic priests and their parishioners have to come to terms with cultural reality. This story is told through the destiny of two brothers: Pascal and Lambert, whose parents were converted in the 50s by Father Joffroy. They look back on a lifetime's journey.
