Description: "Manthia Diawara's film is based on the African opera Bintou Were, a Sahel Opera, which recounts an eternal migration drama. The opera, filmed on location in Bamako, in 2007, serves as a mirror for Diawara to build an aesthetic and reflexive story, through song and dance, about the current and yet timeless drama of migration between North and South, and the ongoing refugee crises." -from container
