Zinder

Synopsis

In the town of Zinder in Niger, the poor area of Kara-Kara which used to be the lepers' district, a culture of gang violence reigns. A group of youths is trying to break free from this violence, trying to start a family and make a life for themselves rather than end up in prison. The Zinder-born filmmaker films their daily lives divided between their gangs and their families, witnessing their desire to break free from the cycle of violence which has built their identities.
