For some, paradise is just a few strokes away, for others, just a few clicks.
In Yaoundé, many women hope to find a white husband via the Internet to escape poverty.
François Ducat met some of these candidates for marriage, followed their path to the “Eldorado” and collected their dreams, their fantasies, their hopes and their disillusions.
Through personal stories, sometimes happy, often painful, and the prism of the relationship between white men and black women, an original form of economic partnership between the North and the South takes shape.
