Neba

🎞️ Movie 52 min FR
1999

Neba draws the portrait of Mamadou Touré who comes back home, looking for his roots. This documentary concerns on this young man living in France and in Mali: both home ports between which ones his own identity is pulled about. NéBa, 'my mother' in language Bambara, is a story of family, a mother who wants to revise its son and a son who wants to bury his father. A story of immigration which transforms into tragedy by the force of laws. It is also the history of a friendship between an alien who returns to the country after eight unsatisfied quest years in Europe and a French who dreams Africa as the paradise lost. A film, a trip on traces of the journey which had behaved Mamadou Touré to cross a part of Africa and Europe to arrive until to France.
