In 2012, Raphael meets Omar Ba, a young painter who works in a small studio in Geneva. Fascinated by his work, he films the painter for entire nights. But the footage piles up and the film remains unfinished. It was not until eight years later that he unearthed these images from their boxes and retraced the unique relationship he had forged with this great artist who is now a must-see in the world of contemporary art.
