Directed by the association Grave’Side Family, this observational documentary follows a year-long grassroots effort that sends fifteen young people from Thônex to Ambohimanatrika, Madagascar, to help build a village water network.

The camera lingers on labor, laughter and cultural exchange, offering a textured, human-scale account of collective commitment and the emotional rhythms of communal work.
