Bye Bye Africa (1999)

Synopsis

After hearing that his mother has died in Chad, a film-maker returns to the country of his birth after many years living in France. Whilst there he travels around the capital N'Djamena, meeting old friends and meditating on such themes as the cultural dislocation caused by exile, the film-making process and the associated responsibilities of a film-maker, and the potential relevance of cinema to a country still recovering from decades of war.—DM
