At the turn of the century, an unusual woman refuses to become an object to be desired or played with. Instead she wants to succeed on the stage of politics in the Third Republic.
The film Soleil Ô, shot over four years with a very low budget, tells the story of a black immigrant who makes his way to Paris in search of “his Gaul ancestors”. This manifesto denounces a new form of slavery: The immigrants desperately seek work, a place to live, but find themselves face to face with indifference, rejection, humiliation…until the final call for uprising. “Soleil Ô” is the title of a West Indian song that tells of the pain of the black people from Dahomey (now Benin) who were taken to the Caribbean as slaves.
La chanteuse

Sin embargo, cuando decidan volver a hacer trabajos por su cuenta verán que no es tan sencillo y que su percepción frente al crimen ha comenzado a cambiar.

George Randal es un ladrón que entiende y justifica su actividad delictiva como una forma de rebelión contra la burguesía, clase social a la que detesta. El robo es una profesión que Randal lleva ejerciendo desde niño y gracias a la cual se ha enriquecido lo suficiente para acabar, paradójicamente, viviendo al más puro estilo burgués. (FILMAFFINITY)
