Where There is Love, There is No Darkness

His routine is a cycle of hardship, fleeting interactions, and quiet resilience. Among indifferent customers and struggling workers, he forms an unexpected bond with Albert, a lonely elderly Parisian. Their friendship offers Seydou a rare connection, reshaping his perspective on belonging. A moving portrait of endurance, faith, and the unseen workers who sustain urban life, proving that hope and human connection persist even in the harshest realities. An appropriate companion piece to last year’s Festival hit, The Story of Souleymane now on release through Conic.
