Rent Chocolat (1988)

France (Mireille Perrier), a young woman, returns to Cameroon to visit Mindif, the colonial outpost she grew up in during the last days of French rule. As she travels, she recalls her childhood there and the bond formed with their 'houseboy' Protee (Isaach de Bankole). A quiet and observant child, unable to quite understand the simmering sexual and racial tensions between the adults around her, France finds her idyll shattered when a plane full of strangers makes an emergency landing nearby.
