“My older brother Joanny abruptly left the family one morning in 1978 to emigrate to the Ivory Coast when I was just 5 years old.

After an absence of 18 years, when we had no news of him, Augustin, a cousin who had just returned from the Ivory Coast, announced that Joanny had died.

In search of his traces and his story, I decided to travel from Koudougou (Burkina Faso) to the Ivory Coast, on the same bus, on the same path as those who emigrate, a little like my brother did himself, I imagine, 32 years ago. “
