Documentaries

Mambety: This is a brilliantly illuminating documentary about the late, great African film-maker Djibril Diop Mambety. It captures the creative and spiritual essence of a giant of African cinema. Papa Madieye Mbaye’s documentary is a mini-master class in working on and thinking about a film. Invaluably, it shows Djibril Diop Mambety on location, considering frames, rehearsing actors, and encouraging cast and crew. Mambety speaks movingly and revealingly about what inspired him, about the solitary experience of film-making and about his films. Catch it on Thursday 24 November at 20:55 CAT.
