My death doesn't belong to me

// My death doesn't belong to me

In Burkina Faso, where many religions coexist and interconfessional marriage is quite common, funerals are often disputed. Charles-Auguste remembers the quarrels over his father's burial and comes to imagine what would his own funeral look like.Muslims, Christians and Animists successively explain what ceremonial they will have in store for him when his time comes. But Charles-August is a hedonist and expresses quite extravagant funeral wishes.
