Touki Bouki
A film by Djibril Diop Mambéty
Mory, a cowherd who rides a motorbike with a zebu skull on the handlebars, and Anta, a student, hustle for the fare to Paris while a few seconds of Josephine Baker singing about Paris skip on a record. In 2008 the World Cinema Foundation restored it from the original 35mm negatives, kept in Paris and provided by Mambéty's son.
