In Burkina Faso, in the gold-digging site of Bantara, Rasmané, 16 years old, descends more than 100 meters deep in artisanal mines to extract gold. Anxious about accidents, Rasmané makes his way in this world of fierce adults, hoping to one day become emancipated. In Burkina Faso, 1 in 18 people make a living from artisanal gold digging, and an estimated 300,000 children work in the digging sites. The film paints a portrait of a whole generation of Burkinabe youth, who suddenly go from childhood to adulthood.
