Set in Martinique in 1931, "Rue Cases Négres" presents a rich portrait of native life under French colonial rule, filtered through the coming of age of a bright, sweetly opportunistic boy learning to reconcile the value of his shanty-town roots with the education opportunities that beckon him to the big city.
