In Tiébélé, a village 172 kilometers south of Ouagadougou, the royal court of the Kasséna people has stood as the community's political and religious center since the 16th century. The film walks through the 1.5-hectare compound of earthen buildings, their walls covered in the vivid geometric patterns that have marked Kasséna identity for generations. Cyril, one of the royal heirs, guides the camera through the courtyards and living quarters, explaining how the princes and their families still mediate disputes and uphold tradition here. The documentary lingers on the practical side of the architecture too: how the clay walls are built, repainted, and maintained, and why the patterns carry meaning beyond decoration. Part of the Habitats of the World series, the film treats the compound less as a tourist curiosity than as a functioning institution, following daily routines inside the walls alongside the history that put them there. It is a compact portrait of a place where architecture, governance, and memory are the same structure.
