Le Chant des fous

Georges Luneau
1979 France 90 minutes undetermined

Bauls are wandering singers who praise “the ways of love” in their songs and roam across Bengali villages, as they have done for centuries. The film follows a few Bauls who meet, come together, and part, stopping in a few places on their way to a festival that eventually brings hundreds of them together.
