The writing of the piece by playwright Hakim Bah was prompted by the news of two young passengers found frozen to death in the landing gear of a Conakry-Brussels flight. The main character is Binta somewhere in the South. She meets a childhood friend who introduces her to dating websites. Binta leaves her abusive husband Bachir and leaves for France to meet a date. Bachir follows her to Paris and abandons their children. They decide to travel to their mother in Paris, which leads to their death in the landing gear of an airplane. Bachir cannot bear the loss of his wife and children and puts an end to his life.

The characters in A Bout du Sueur are lonely figures who meet and avoid each other, hoping for a better life. The setting is the departure hall of an airport, with a musician who guards the 'passage' from one world to another. But the characters never cross the line between those two worlds. Their human condition is to remain trapped and unreachable in a world they cannot leave.
