The Anxiety of the Mayflies

These stories tell us about the problems of today: immigration, racism, wars, state violence, manipulation, love and betrayed hopes. It all started with the quest for a promised land, a migration to Europe forbidden to Africans. Then, the public rape of a woman by another woman for revenge. In "Bitterness", Zany, Nzuzi's malicious husband, is a man convinced of his undivided power in a financially dependent society: he does nothing for his wife without consideration. He ends up separating from her. But Nzuzi is the mother-lioness, courageous and determined, ready to make any sacrifice for her children, considered her only reason for living. She puts all the strength of her heart and all the virtues of her intelligence to elevate them with dignity. What is the meaning of happiness for a woman? To be a mother or to live your freedom? Do children deserve all the sacrifices made for them by their mothers? The Ultimate Confession asks a question that every man asks himself in secret: are my legitimate children really of my blood? The truth here will come from the trials of life.
