Afriques : comment ça va avec la douleur ?
1996
France
165 minutes
French; undetermined
Raymond Depardon has chosen to tell us about Africa. His film reveals to us the Africa he loves, everyday Africa which is at the same time heart-warming, generous, unique, torn apart and discrete. It is a film diary, made with a one-man crew and a camera-mounted mike. Travelling through those fragile lands which make up the African continent, from July 1993 to February 1996, he comes up face to face with his preconceptions. Starting out from South Africa, he journeys through Angola, Rwanda, Burundi, Tanzania, Somalia, Kenya, Sudan, Chad, Niger, Egypt. Refusing to accept the silence of poverty, Raymond Depardon questions his responsibility as an image-maker to talk about pain.
