Ouaga paradiso

Thierry Robert (2011)

Filmed in the capital of African cinema in February 2009, this documentary offers an interesting study of the challenges faced by cinemas, directors and ordinary people (including a focus on women) in one of the world's poorest countries.

With African production often being perceived as dwindling, a new generation of directors battle to keep the tradition alive.

Off-air recording, TV5 Europe, 03/03/2011. In French and with some Mòoré, subtitled in French.
