Two opposite police officers must go on a mission to try to dismantle a mafia organization.

This quartet, despite differences and tensions in the way they each carry out their profession, will attack these criminals in order to bring down the thinking heads of this mafia network.
Will they manage to come together to resolve this investigation and put an end to the corruption that is plaguing the country ?
About the director
This third feature film, “Safari in Conakry”, is a complement to my first two films and the continuation of my adventures in cinematographic land. Making a film is also a beautiful journey towards the unknown, towards the other, towards other horizons and it is above all one of the most beautiful ways of encouraging reflection, a questioning of acquired knowledge, an opening towards a more optimistic future.
This film is also a synthesis of my cinematographic experiences and a desire to return to a continent that has given me so much, the African continent. A way of paying a beautiful tribute to the people of Guinea who carry the future of the country in their hands.
It is from all these experiences that the film was born. It is also sparked by a desire to share the importance of reflection, discovery, experience and awareness that cinema brings.
