Le film suit deux journalistes dans les tréfonds du delta du Niger : Rufus, aussi vert qu’enthousiaste et Zaq, cynique et vieillissant, alors qu’ils enquêtent sur l’enlèvement de l’épouse européenne d’un patron de l’industrie du pétrole.
Mais « l’histoire n’est pas toujours le but ultime », comme Zaq l’expose à Rufus au début de leur périple conradien le long du fleuve.
Très vite, leur quête de vérité prend une tournure plus ambigüe.

English
The feature follows two journalists – keen, young Rufus and ageing, cynical Zaq – as they pursue the kidnapped European wife of an oil executive into the badlands of the Niger delta. But « the story is not always the final goal », Zaq tells Rufus at the beginning of their Conradian journey upriver, and their quest for the truth soon turns into something more complex.

NOTE BY THE DIRECTOR
With OIL ON WATER, I want to explore, cinematically, the ecological disaster sweeping through our time, across the globe. This is the singular most important problem staring humanity in the face today. One that we must all come to terms with in order to re enforce our search for a way to continue to exist on this planet.
