Fantastic and inventive on its small budget, and much has been said of its cultural and cinematic relevance. But am I the only one who read this as taking place entirely in Anta's mind, after Mory was thrown off the cliff to his death by the gang at the beginning?

How condescending of you to talk about it as a "little African film", mi-16evil. It is a huge film.

The film (somewhat) tells the story of two young Senegalese who dream to escape their country to go to France. Unfortunately inspired by the Nouvelle Vague, I found it rather boring. A couple of scenes with funny dances and brawls is all I'll remember from it.
