TO MISS ISSOUFOU IN BILMA

A l'intention de Mademoiselle Issoufou à Bilma

Directed by Caroline de Bendern
France, Niger, 1971
Avant-Garde

Synopsis

The film offers a look into Africa that is rarely available to ethnographers or anthropologists. At its heart is the spirit of interaction. It observes, but with the wavering eye of home movie, rather than the fixed formality of a documentary.
