  • "Fiction-documentaire. Drame historique. Afrique occidentale, 1810 : un bateau négrier quitte le Sénégal avec une cargaison de plusieurs centaines d'esclaves en direction des Amériques. Dans le commerce triangulaire Europe - Afrique - Amériques, le transport des esclaves noirs était appelé " le passage du milieu ". Le cinéaste antillais Guy Deslauriers illustre cette époque en évoquant l'histoire d'un homme qui va subir la longue traversée de 18 semaines dans des conditions inhumaines où toutes les douleurs sont vécues : maladies, mauvais traitement, angoisses, peur, etc."
