A committed father, therefore, close to his children, and who has not forgotten his roots: in this highly anticipated film, he plays entirely in Fulani, the language of his childhood. “It was not a problem, I speak it since I was born. But playing in Fulani was very strong. This language brings to light things about me that I’ve never shown on screen“, he confided, honest and touching.
For the moment, no release date has been formalized for this feature film, currently in competition in the Un Certain Regard selection at the Cannes Film Festival.
