Description
Summary:A man who wants to change his life joins a ship. On this boat there is a woman who runs the world in search of the sailor of Gibraltar whom she loved and who disappeared. Love is born between the man who wants to change his life and the woman who is looking for the sailor of Gibraltar. Together, they will scrupulously search for this missing sailor. If they find him it will be the end of their love. A strange contradiction. From Sète to Tangier, from Tangier to Abidjan, and from Abidjan to Leopoldville, their search continues.
