Melé, a bar singer, is unhappy in her marriage. Her husband, Chaka, is unemployed and the couple is on the verge of breaking up. Meanwhile, in the courtyard of the house they share with other families, a trial court has been set up.

Amidst the pleas and the testimonies, life goes on in the courtyard.
