2008 - 52 min - Vidéo HD - Couleur - France

Mayotte owes its plural and unique identity to crossbreeding and history as shown by the sequence of Great Wedding, a series of sumptuous celebrations in which, however, the bride does not take part. It the case for Faizat who stays cooped up un her room, as required by traditions, while outside her whole family is involved in organizing feasts, dances and songs which punctuate the festivities .
Along these two weeks, the director follows the bustling every day life of Faizat’s family who is doing everything to ensure this Weeding is a success.
