AN ANTHOLOGY OF SHORT FILMS FROM NIGERIA (BRITISH COUNCIL/FILM LAB AFRICA SHOWCASE)
SUN 27 OCT | CINÉ LUMIÈRE, 4:00 PM | TICKETS AVAILABLE SOON
Jimmy, returning from a trip to the United States, returns to his village in Niger. He brings back complete sets of Wild West cowboys as gifts for his friends. From now on, thus dressed in American mythology, they are no longer called Kali, Ibrahim or Boubakar, but Black Cooper, James Kelly, Casse-Tout or even Reine Christine. And, like what they imagine to be a real band of cowboys, they will ransack the region, angering the villagers. Film restored in 2K in 2019 – Restoration partners: CNC in collaboration with Argos Films
