His comic strip : If you follow me around the world...
An Indian village suffers for a dry spell. The well is still working in the village nearby. Clashing with selfish and fatalist people from the two villages, the young Ranji decides to leave for a trip around the world. A hare, who comes out to be a real genius, joins him and guides him in his trip through the evils of the World.
From the original novel of the writer Carl Norac, Fifi Mukuna and Christophe Edimo portray a lively and amusing story, simple and direct in its images. The great challenge is to talk about ecology in simple words and to communicate the responsibility towards the next generations.
