Dimanche à Brazzaville

2012

A young radio broadcaster, Carlos La Menace, invites us to share the weekend with three characters from Brazzaville, the capital of Congo. The Yves Saint Laurent sapeur, surrounded by extreme poverty, chooses elegance as a way of life. Chériff Bakala is not any rapper. Hip hop mix with traditional music, using batteries made from water drums. And Palmas Yaya, current champion of catch from Brazzaville, relies on vodú in order to revalidate his title at the most complicated time of his life. Directors: Enric Bach and Adrià Monés Screenplay: Enric Bach and Adrià Monés Photography: Enric Bach Music: Chériff Bakala, Fanfarre Geriko & Jean Serge Essous
