Tradition and Imagination
Guinea-Bissau
Director: Vanessa Fernandes
Duration: 4’
Synopsis:
In Benin, people are still afraid of the sea, they keep memories of a past of slavery. A memory that endures. It is on the main road of the city of Ouidah, “The slave route”, in the heavy abandonment monuments, in the patterns of gestures danced to the sound of the wind and the sea. It is the words of the elders that revitalize the light, and the hope of finding what was lost.
