Mr. Kardish had at the time arranged a retrospective of African films at the Museum. Excerpts are shown from Sembene's film Ceddo and from Et La Niege N'Était Plus by Ababacar Samb-Makharam, and Reouh-Takh by Mahama Johnson Traore. The conversation is in French with voice over translation. The topics discussed with some passion on this program concern art in a post-colonial society, censorship and self-censorship, how Senegalese films track the underlying concerns of society (including the conflict between Christianity and Islam and both with old indigenous religions), and the role of educated Senegalese who return to a country in which they can no longer relate so comfortably to older traditions.
