25 year old Françoise and 27 year old Alexandre live in Lausanne. Out of love to his fiancée Alexandre suggests getting married in Françoise’s homeland, Cameroon. Preparations for the ceremony, organised by an African uncle, take on extensive dimensions and lead to considerable tension between the young couple. Alexandre´s parents have also made the journey and are torn between curiosity and preconceptions. The small family from Waadtland are, for the first time, confronted with a large African family.
