A very fresh approach to the questions of identity, immigration, and integration… The mixing of cultures in French Guiana through the cooking of… a magic dish. The awara soup is a kind of stew containing all sorts of ingredients from French Guiana. People say that if someone eats that dish on Easter, he’s sure never to leave Guiana. Using the cooking of this dish as starting point, the film explores the multicultural reality composing this French overseas region. Americian Indians, Europeans, Slave descendents, Laotians, Chinese, Brazilians, and Surinamese tell us how they’re bringing new flavors to the Guianese stew of identities.
