Synopsis
Leaving behind his mother, his fiancee and his marabout (religious advisor), Senegalese tailor Billo sets off for Rome to make it big in the fashion world. Struggling at first, he eventually hooks up with a group of sympathetic Italians, and good things start to happen; he's safe, settled and even selling his old clothes. Then a call from Senegal arrives, telling him that everything is set for his upcoming wedding.
