On December 5, 1984, in Waan Yaat, in the Hienghène valley, Kanak independence activists were ambushed. It is a carnage: 10 dead and 5 seriously injured. At the other end of the gun, small Métis landowners of the valley, at their wits' end, terrified of being chased away from their farms. Nearly 40 years later, after years of silence, the main protagonists of the drama testify for the first time. Based on never-before-seen archives and the result of more than four years of investigation, this documentary sheds new and shocking light on this tragedy.
