Every second of Souleymane’s new life in France is precious. Having fled Guinea, his asylum interview looms. He powers through the streets of Paris after dark as a delivery rider, sleeps in hostels and prepares for his crucial appointment and pressure builds as his date with destiny approaches.

Boris Lojkine’s portrait of a modern migrant propels us into the precarious world of an otherwise invisible man. Steeped in compassion, Souleymane’s Story combines the pace of a thriller with the emotional gut punch of a social drama. An award-winning French production in which the dynamic storytelling is matched by a star-making performance from charismatic newcomer Abou Sangaré whose own experiences were woven into the character of Souleymane.

Winner of 4 César awards: Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress for Nina Meurisse, Best Male Breakthrough for Abou Sangare and Best Editing.
