Victor Mertens, known to the Congolese as Mfumu Matensi, is the oldest white Jesuit missionary alive in the Congo today. He has been living there for over sixty years. He headed the Society of Jesus during the troubled times of the independence. Victor's life summarizes the dreams and disillusions of the Belgian missionary enterprise. Today, he is an old powerless chief who has accepted to go back over his past, during an intimate exchange with Nicolas, his great-nephew, who has come to the Congo to meet him.
