Moctar grew up in Mali, struggling to adapt to life in Paris after his family moves. When he sees a hyena in the street one day, he tries to explain his vision, but his peers laugh and he is sent to the school psychologist. No one believes him, until he befriends the new kid, Paulo.

Variety by Deborah Young

Leading Burkina Faso director Idrissa Ouedraogo transplants an African family to Paris in a well-made, dignified, French-funded production. Ouedraogo sidesteps the usual African-immigrant plot issues of racism and marginalization to concentrate on the psychological adjustment problems of a child.
