Adama
Annual Selection 2009
1916. Adama, 12 years old, lives in an isolated village in West Africa. Beyond the cliffs lies the World of Winds, ruled by the Nassaras. One night, his older brother Samba disappears. Defying the elders’ veto, Adama sets out in search of him. With the unwavering determination of a child on the cusp of adulthood, he embarks on a journey taking him across the seas, to the North, and eventually to the front lines of World War I.
