Jean Rouch's return to Niger, to meet his African friends and the play "Perses" by Aeschylus provide him with the opportunity to relate his Dionysian vision of the world and Songhai mythology. Lam, the Fulani shepherd who is now deceased, once invented a dream: “to be stronger than death”. It is with this strong idea that the journey of this film begins in search of the wonderful stories of the Niger River.
