Description
In a newly independent African nation, Salim, a Muslim Indian merchant, opens a store in a small town, whose inhabitants include a Belgian priest, a witch and her son Ferdinand, and a white intellectual named Raymond and his elegant wife Yvette. The president of the new country is a demagogue called the Big Man who hires Raymond as his speechwriter. Gradually the town's veneer of civilization cracks, and chaos and corruption reign.
