Late 70s, Ivory Coast. Aya, 19, lives in Yopougon, a popular neighbourhood in Abidjan. She's a serious young woman who would rather stay home and study than go out with her friends. While Aya likes to divide her days between school, her family, and her two friends Adjoua and Bintou, who only think about going gazer at night, things become a little more complicated when Adjoua becomes pregnant and Moussa learns that he is the father. What to do?
Aya of Yop City is an animation film based on the eponymous comic book.
