Afriko v Glavo!

Synopsis

2000, 49 mins, English/French/Moore, colour, stereo, DVCam Broadcast: RTV Slovenia

From a far corner of an African country we bring back a letter to a man in Slovenia from the village he left more than three decades before...

Arts documentary commissioned by RTV Slovenia about our tour in Burkina Faso. It is unashamedly partisan in its promotion of the slogans and values of Thomas Sankaka’s Revolution of 1983 – 1987. Afriko v glavo is an aggressive phrase in Slovene, something like "Mets-toi l'Afrique en tête".
