The Other Profile

French filmmaker Armel Hostiou discovers he has a second Facebook account: a fake Armel who has real photos of him and many female friends, all of whom live in Kinshasa. Fake Armel invites them to audition for his next film, which is supposedly set in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Faced with the impossibility of closing this account, the filmmaker decides to go looking for his double.

Days in Kinshasa are filled with absurd meetings with lawyers, IT specialists, marabouts  – anyone who could help get them on the right path. Time is running out, the tiredness rising, and slowly Hostiou’s hope in finding his digital double fades. Until a an old fisherman crosses his path, taking the filmmaker on a totally new type of journey.  New horizons open up and the borders between the true and false Armel start to blur.
