The teenage Fanny enjoys the privilege of going to the Maison d'éducation de la légion d'honneur, an elite high school near Paris. She takes her schooling very seriously, but still allows herself nightly meetings with her classmates in the art room of the venerable boarding school. When Mélissa joins the class, she is quickly accepted into the circle of nocturnal girls - who are particularly fascinated by the voodoo rituals that have been practised for generations in Mélissa's family, which comes from Haiti. When Fanny's boyfriend breaks up with her, she seeks out Mélissa's aunt and asks her for magical help ... Director Bertrand Bonello (NOCTURAMA, SAINT LAURENT, among others) creates an arc from the present to 1960s Haiti and French colonial history with his new film. Mystical, mysterious and fascinating.
