Shortly after his death in 2008, Maldoror made this film about her longtime friend and collaborator, the NĂ©gritude poet AimĂ© CĂ©saire. In this film, she retraces the steps of CĂ©saireâs travels across the globe â particularly back to his hometown in Martinique, where Maldoror interviews his relatives about his life â and her working relationship with CĂ©saire, including fragments of her previous films about him, Un homme, une terre (1976) and Le masque des mots (1987).
