I am part of the Kali'na people, I grew up on the banks of the Maroni River. I have chosen to pass on what little I have learned in this world.
My journey to Talwakem ("the one who reflects" in Wayana) was a quest where I was searching for my identity. I am a member of the Kali'na people, I grew up on the banks of the Maroni River. I have chosen to dissect my mind, to expose my quest to transmit in turn what little I have learned in this world. From Yalimapo beach, the place where my people first met the Europeans, to Tumuc Humac, which remains the home of Kaïlawa, a great Wayana warrior. A journey that highlights our connection to these lands. In the search for my identity, I will thus address the essential questions of the current social and economic situation.

Esta película es el viaje personal de su director, Christophe Yanuwana Pierre. Su viaje a Talwakem ("el que refleja" en el lenguaje Wayana), una búsqueda de la identidad. Perteneciente al pueblo Kali'na, creció a orillas del río Maroni. Tomó la decisión de diseccionar su espíritu, de exponer su búsqueda para transmitir a su vez lo poco que ha aprendido en este mundo. Desde la playa de Yalimapo, lugar del primer encuentro entre su pueblo y los europeos, hasta TumucHumac, que sigue siendo el hogar de Kaïlawa, un gran guerrero Wayana. Un viaje que pone de relieve el vínculo con estas tierras.
