Mauritania

Mauritanian film is shaped by exile and the Sahel. Med Hondo, born in Mauritania, made angry, formally inventive films about colonialism and migration in France, and Abderrahmane Sissako became one of Africa's most acclaimed directors, with a calm, poetic style that treats politics through everyday scenes.
