🚀 An interstellar odyssey grounded in ecological and social realities

In total secrecy, a coalition of African nations launches the very first space mission to explore the planet NARDAL. The goal: to assess whether it could host African populations if Earth becomes uninhabitable.

But beyond the technological challenge, the true test lies in the crew’s dynamics—made up of personalities from diverse African and diasporic cultures. And that’s where the fun (and the tension) begins…

🌍 Jean-Pascal Zadi brings together an all-star cast:

• Reda Kateb – charismatic and delightfully spaced out
• Lous and the Yakuza – a stylish and brilliant engineer
• Fadily Camara & Fary – for that irresistible comedic spark
• Déborah Lukumuena, Alassane Diong, Claudia Tagbo, Jean-Claude Muaka
• And Éric Judor – the offbeat, punchy voice-over

🎬 A committed comedy under the stars

Black to the Future is a genre-blending work from Jean-Pascal Zadi: part sci-fi, part social satire, and part reflection on climate exile. It’s all infused with sharp humor, bold artistic direction, and a staging that sparks dialogue between cultures.

Shot in Côte d’Ivoire and Morocco, the film merges futuristic settings with contemporary realism for a fully immersive experience.
