La Noire de…

Ousmane Sembene
1966 Senegal 65 minutes French

A couple of voluntary overseas workers return to France for their holidays with Diouana, who looks after their children. After hopefully looking forward to this experience, the young woman finds nothing but an exile’s solitude and the humiliations of a domestic employee. La Noire de… is the first African feature film.
