Mossane is said to marry a rich emigrant, according to the old custom of pre-determined marriage, although she loves Fara, a destitute student from the area, and only wants to live with him. The will of her parents to marry her as soon as possible drives Mossane to despair and finally to escape via the Mamangueth ... The film appeals to the resistance of the young generation and is especially the Africans, their courage and their desire for emancipation dedicated.

Mossane is a beautiful 14-year-old girl who has just reached marriageable age in a village in Senegal. She has many suitors, including a simple-minded farmer's son who plans to drag her away. Even her own brother Ngor is in love with her. However she is in love with Fara, a poor student who has returned to the village, while the university is on strike. At birth, she had been promised in marriage to Diogoye, who went away to work in France. Diogoye, who supplied her parents with many things over the years, has now sent a dowry, and asked that she be married to him in the village in his absence; she would then be sent to France.
