Comrade Papa

Following the death of his parents, Dabilly, a young white man, seeks a life of colonial adventure in the Cte d’Ivoire. It is 1880 and Dabilly joins a beleaguered French general trying to set up trading routes into a coast as yet untouched by colonisation. A century later and a young Black boy born to communist parents in Amsterdam begins to research his family history. When he is sent to Cte d’Ivoire to visit his grandmother, he will discover traces of an ancestor he never knew existed.
