Here we call them the holidaymakers. Every year they fly in at the end of June, and the much-awaited vacation in the country begins. This had been a dream for three or four years. It is how two months of cohabitation begin between residents and holidaymakers – exiled French West Indians called les bonifiés (the better-offs). In the film we see two families on their “bonifiés” vacations in Guadeloupe and Martinique.
