| Movie Haiku: | Superb story by Teicher & co-writer Alexi Pappas about a teenage girl in Senegal coming face-to-face with her first moral dilemma. When a financial crisis hits, her father decides to keep "Coumba" (Dior Kâ) in school & marry off her 11 year old sister instead. Told with such simplicity & respect, it is as if the great Ousmane Sembene was playing coach from the Great Beyond. |
