A young man in Dakar.
Sinekatalog’s take
Djibril Diop Mambéty's short feature follows a cheeky young Dakar man evading a policeman across the city. Loose, comic and rhythmic, with a moving camera and sound collage, it is a bold, joyous precursor to his later masterpieces.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
