Hugo reluctantly follows his parents following their transfer to Mayotte. With slums, heat and being white and rich when the majority is black and poor, he struggles to adapt. But he does, thanks to a local girl with whom he falls in love.
Unfortunately the movie Bitter Heaven is not yet available on HBO Max.
