One night in Mali, with the sound of Kora (the traditional musical instrument of Mali) in the background, the legend of "Fantan Fanga" ("The Power of the Poor") unfolds. Just before the presidential election, an albino is found decapitated. It is Fafa, also an albino and leader of a theatrical company, who reports the crime. Police officer Doussou takes up the investigation but he ends up relying on the power of African tradition to find the severed head when they run into a roadblock with the investigation.
