Full plot (contains spoilers)
The young and talented French footballer Leslie Konda (Ibrahim Koma), who plays as a striker, has just signed a contract with a major Spanish club. His agent, Didier (Fabrice Éboué), a rather small-time figure, spotted him during his adolescence. Leslie’s ancestors came from Botswanga, a country ruled by the dictator Thibault “Bobo” Babimbi (Thomas Ngijol). A football enthusiast, Babimbi strikes a crooked deal with Didier so that Leslie Konda will join his country’s national team, the Botswanga Crocodiles. Didier and Leslie spend a week in an absurd dictatorship where the tyrant knows the names of his pet crocodiles, which eat political opponents, better than he knows the names of his own children.
