In July 2010, a university professor in the United States returns to Ghana, her country of origin, to be inducted as queen mother. The Future in Retro consists of a tangle of several stories, several journeys, several exiles, which reflect contemporary globalized society. The Future in Retro is a tale of motherhood, brotherhood, belonging to a group, and exile. It is also a tale of departure, disappearance, trauma, the attempt to return, and an existential quest.
Directed by Jean-Marie Téno
