Based on a true story, Furcy recounts the life of a man born enslaved on Réunion Island at the end of the 18th century to a mother who was legally freed but never granted her liberty. With the help of a progressive lawyer and sustained by a forbidden love, Furcy embarks on a long legal battle to claim his freedom. Abd Al Malik, poet and filmmaker, transforms this story into a moving historical drama about dignity, justice, and resilience, brought to life by Romain Duris and Ana Girardot.
