esse est percipi. George Berkeley.


"One comprehends Africa badly from the moment when one considers that cultural development is secondary and when one believes that what Africans need first is rice and wheat. The salvation of Africa lies rather by a return to its origins, to its authenticity. But this return is only realisable through auto-representation.

Every nation has the right to be represented by the cinema."

Souleymane Cissé
