Alou

Alou, un joven maliense recolector de miel, se dirige hacia las colmenas silvestres de un baobab. Unos yihadistas en un 4x4, armados hasta los dientes, lo amenazan y hacen explotar el árbol sagrado. Entre los restos, Alou descubre una estatuilla, casi intacta, que representa una mujer embarazada. Animado por su padre, va al país Dogón para mostrársela al sabio del poblado, el Hogón, respetado por todos en su cultura. El anciano reconoce enseguida la Maternidad roja. Según él, es obra del maestro de Tintam, cuya primera Maternidad se encuentra ya en el Pabellón de las sesiones del Louvre.
