English title: Black Girl
A Senegalese woman travels to France to work for a French couple for whom she had already worked while they were living in Senegal.
This is one of the most absurd movies I have ever seen, and, while its short duration might be partly responsible for a poor development of the filmmaker's ideas, I suspect that the thing was doomed from its inception. The initial reception seemed to reflect that reality, but later reappraisal differed considerably, to nobody's surprise. All that being said, I will give it a somewhat higher rating than its mere dramatic merits justify, because of its stunning cinematography.
Rating: 30
