Sabine runs a small salon in the African quarter of Brussels. The film focuses on Sabine’s stories and the customers’ joys, worries, problems and fears, which bring depth and life into the premises. As life stories are told, emotions from tears to laughter abound, and a male visitor brings a touch of flirt into the salon.

What are critics saying?
The New Yorker by Richard Brody
Within a single salon, and amid its handful of workers and customers, Mbakam discerns the fault lines of modern life, analyzes them in terms of personal experience, and displays them with an enduring and exemplary iconographic power.
With a view that is at once intimate and distant, Mbakam shows the duality of diasporic identity; she is never totally at home, and never totally without it.
