A miserable vagrant in the streets of Cap-Haïtien dreams of an imaginary kingdom. He fancies himself a king, Christophe, the first sovereign of the New World, former slave and liberator of Haiti in 1804. Chased out of town, king “Chacha” as he is called, hides out in the grandiose ruins of the Sans Souci castle with Toimothée, a street urchin that he has taken under his wing. There he assembles his “court” and reigns over an absurd kingdom.
