Staff from the Maison de la Gare, a charity that seeks to rehabilitate ex-Talibe (children who live and study the Koran at a Daara, religious school), with Omar Sow a young boy they found sleeping near the central bus station while on night patrol. They offer the boy a bed and food at the Maison de la Gare.
Talibe often have issues that stem from being separated from their parents at a young age and the abuse they endure at the Daaras where they are expected to beg to raise money for the Daara's marabout and to get food to fed themselves.
