Code Noir was the law that codified slavery during the French Colonial period on isle de France (now Mauritius). The story relates the unfathomable pain of a mother when her child born with fairer complexion is taken away from her and placed under the guardianship of her master. The film explores the human madness that was planted by that very law and the acceptance of such as normality.
