The residents are united by their struggle for recognition in a society where immigrants are often regarded as second class citizens. In a world of exiles, poverty is the common denominator. Against this backdrop, director Zemmouri has brought together two of the biggest and most charismatic stars of the cross-cultural musical form known as Rai, Cheb Mami and Khaled, who play the leaders of a band called Rap Oriental. As the band of musicians starts to gain in popularity, the Imam of the local mosque (Mouss) tries to destroy them by stirring up racial and cultural tensions. However, no one can stop the infectious popularity of the songs in this story of music triumphing over bigotry and violence.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 49.3814%;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIRECTOR AND CAST\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eDirector: Mahmoud Zemmouri\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eStarring: Cheb Mami\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eStarring: Khaled\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eStarring: Mouss\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 45.6186%;\"\u003e \n\u003ch4\u003eGENRES\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bullets\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.filmmovement.com\/libraries\/index.asp?FINDBY=Genre\u0026amp;GenreID=1\"\u003eComedy\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.filmmovement.com\/libraries\/index.asp?FINDBY=Genre\u0026amp;GenreID=35\"\u003eImmigrant Experience\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.filmmovement.com\/libraries\/index.asp?FINDBY=Genre\u0026amp;GenreID=29\"\u003eSpanish Language\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.filmmovement.com\/libraries\/index.asp?FINDBY=Genre\u0026amp;GenreID=61\"\u003eStaff Favorites\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBONUS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2103\/9651\/files\/rotating_square_2_480x480.jpg?v=1579211800\" alt=\"\" style=\"margin-right: 10px; float: left;\" width=\"226\" height=\"157\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"name\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc0000;\"\u003eROTATING SQUARE \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eDIRECTED BY \u003cb\u003eAHMED HASSOUNA\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eEGYPT \/ 2002 \/ ARABIC WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES \/ 14  MIN\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSYNOPSIS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSami and his wife Sarah are packing to move to the USA where they intend to open a restaurant.

After some four months of travel towards Belgium, they are exhibited before a million visitors. Subjected to the crushing gaze of the \"Whites\" and the cold climate, many fell prey to disease and even some lost their lives. The dead were hastily dispatched in a common grave, sparking a fierce debate in Belgian society. The project was overblown, but necessary in the eyes of the first colonizers, who presumed to have tamed the far-flung savages. One hundred years later, Congolese compatriots return to the scene of these events and question the \"Whites\" of today on the incredible story of that \"human zoo\". They carry out the ritual of \"a return to the earth\" by way of reparation for too great a hurt… A film that revisits a century of stereotyped conceptions about the Africans.

The government has granted amnesty to all war criminals. Atim, 16 years old, is given a revolver by his grandfather so that he may kill the man who killed his father... Atim leaves his village for N’djamena, seeking a man he does not know. He quickly locates him: former war criminal Nassara is now married and settled down as the owner of a small bakery... With the firm intention of killing him, Atim gets closer to Nassara under the guise of looking for work, and is hired as an apprentice baker… Intrigued by Atim's attitude toward him, Nassara takes him under his wing and teaches him the secrets of making bread... Over the weeks, a strange relationship evolves between the two. Despite his disgust, Atim seems to recognise in Nassara the father figure he has always needed, while Nassara sees the teenager as a potential son.

Embittered by his experience with racism in the French Army, he gravitated to radical politics, Sartrean existentialism and the philosophy of black consciousness known as negritude. His 1952 book, ''\u003cstrong\u003eBlack Skin, White Masks\u003c\/strong\u003e,'' offers a penetrating analysis of racism and of the ways in which it is internalized by its victims. While secretly aiding the rebels of the Algerian anti-colonial war as a doctor in Algeria, Fanon cared for victims and perpetrators alike, producing case notes that shed invaluable light on the psychic traumas of colonial war.

Every day she buys her midday meal on credit from Anne-Rose. Through the connection between these two women the film shows part of their daily work and the constant battle for survival that they lead together with other women in Haiti. Going beyond this, however the film demonstrates the extent to which the importation of North American goods has brought about the collapse of Haitian regional production and ruined Haiti's economy.

Today, Moussa Toure follows in the master’s footsteps with this drama of 30 men (and one woman, a stowaway) who set out on an illegal 7-day voyage to Spain - making the perilous trip in a pirogue - a boat resembling a vastly oversized dinghy. While sharing a common desire to build a better future, these men hail from different ethnic and religious backgrounds. The story grows from a finely delineated mosaic of personalities - reactions to the journey’s mounting danger - that span the emotional panoply of human experience. Toure’s compelling tale says as much about the universal nature of courage and perfidy as it does about the economic realities faced by so many of the world’s people. \u003cstrong\u003eTHE PIROGUE\u003c\/strong\u003e was featured in Cannes 2012, in the Un Certain Regard\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e section.\"\u003c\/em\u003e ~ \u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eFilm Forum.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIRECTOR AND CAST\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eDirector: Moussa Touré\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eStarring: Souleymane Seye Ndiaye\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eStarring: Laïty Fall\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eStarring: Malaminé 'Yalenguen' Dramé\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eGENRES\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bullets\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eDrama \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AfricanFilm.com","offers":[{"title":"DVD Only","offer_id":31528670232633,"sku":"","price":295.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Streaming Only","offer_id":31528670265401,"sku":"","price":445.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD + Streaming","offer_id":31528670298169,"sku":"","price":545.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2103\/9651\/products\/THE_PIROGUE_Poster.jpg?v=1502477867"},{"product_id":"the-president-has-aids","title":"THE PRESIDENT HAS AIDS?","description":"\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/PtY9phQgOmU\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"name\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #ac7844;\"\u003eTHE PRESIDENT HAS AIDS?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eDIRECTED BY\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003eARNOLD ANTONIN\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003eHAITI \/ 2007 \/ CREOLE AND FRENCH WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES \/ 110 MIN\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eSYNOPSIS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eJimmy Jean-Louis -- featured among the cast of the television phenomenon “Heroes,”  -- stars as musician extraordinaire in denial, President, in this Haitian comedy-drama about the HIV\/AIDS epidemic. Dao is the biggest movie star in Haiti, the self-proclaimed \"President of Compas.\" He has women falling at his feet and men emulating him. He feels invincible-living the life of a rock star--sex, drugs and alcohol--except that he can no longer hide his illness which is threatening to derail his career. Despite pressure from his manager, he refuses to get tested for AIDS, turning instead to rituals, spells, and the church. At one of his concerts, he rescues Nina from the leery advances of Larieux, a wealthy and powerful businessman, who Nina's mother wants her to marry. As romance blossoms between Dao and Nina, who likes Dao despite his fame, not because of it, Larieux plots his revenge.

She complains about her employer, who continuously criticizes her and gets on her case, and she talks about her dream of one day opening her own eatery. Meanwhile, we see her sweep the pavement, prepare the food and clean the house. The contrast with her vast and barren native region is enormous. In Dakar, some 150,000 young women work as housekeepers for families whose daughters can go to school. \"Why does the emancipation of some result in the servitude of others?\" Amy wonders. The filmmakers interview other young maids who dream of going to school, and they film a woman who shouts her furious lyrics straight into the camera in rapper-like fashion: \"I keep your houses squeaky clean, but you all think I'm dirty!\" In a dramatized scene in a slum, the women demonstrate how they'd like to deal with a woman who doesn't pay her housekeeper enough. In response to the situation, the filmmakers make an appeal to change the rules of the world economy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 307px;\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDIRECTOR AND CAST\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eDirector:  Khady Sylla and Charlie Van Damme\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 282px;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003e  \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eGENRES\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"bullets\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eDocu-drama \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"AfricanFilm.com","offers":[{"title":"DVD Only","offer_id":31528690221113,"sku":"","price":245.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Streaming Only","offer_id":31528690253881,"sku":"","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"DVD + Streaming","offer_id":31528690286649,"sku":"","price":495.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2103\/9651\/products\/Silent_Monologue.png?v=1567738822"},{"product_id":"sia-the-dream-of-the-python","title":"SIA, THE DREAM OF THE PYTHON","description":"\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/82Lxsks3Luk\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\n\u003ch1 class=\"name\" itemprop=\"name\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc0000;\"\u003eSIA, THE DREAM OF THE PYTHON\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eDIRECTED BY \u003cb\u003eDANI KOUYATÉ\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eBURKINA FASO \/ 2001 \/ BAMBARA WITH ENGLISH SUBTITLES \/ 96 MIN\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eSYNOPSIS\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"dirs\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #000000;\"\u003eKombi is a poverty-stricken city dominated by a tyrant king.
