Senegalese director Djibril Diop Mambéty, one of the greatest figures in all of African film, died in 1998. In this behind-the-scenes documentary, shot during the making of his final work, "The Little Girl Who Sold the Sun / La petite vendeuse de soleil", Mambéty speaks with his technicians, prepares the actors, talks with his young star, and, in voiceover, shares his thoughts on cinema and life. "Mambéty" doesn't differ significantly from the stock "behind-the-scenes" documentaries that adorn most DVDs nowadays, except that Mambéty's films have scenes you actually want to be taken behind. Because of the kind of attention that gets paid to African cinema, there's an initial intrigue to Mambéty, but that interest is sustained by Mambéty's own lyrical insights into his aesthetics. em filme de / a film by / un film de Papa Madièye MBAYE Senegal / 2002 / Documentaire / 28mins / Wolof sous-titré Titulo / Original title / Titre Original : Mambéty International Title (English) / Titre international (Anglais) : Mambéty Title (France / Belgium) / Titre (France, Belgique) : Mambéty Other Title (in Arabic) / Autre Titre (en arabe) : Duração / Duración / Runtime / Durée : 28' (00h 28 minutes, 00:28:00) Type / Type : Curta-metragem documentario / Short Documentary / Court-métrage documentaire Gênero / Genre : Portrait / Portrait Idioma / Languages / Langues de tournage : Wolof, French / Wolof, Français Subtítulos / Subtitles / Sous-titres : English, French / Anglais, Français País de Produção / Country of Production / Pays de Production : Senegal / Senegal / Sénégal País do Diretor / Filmmaker's Country / Pays du réalisateur : Senegal / Senegal / Sénégal País de filmagem / Country of Filming / Pays de tournage : Senegal / Senegal / Sénégal Ano de Produção / Year of production / Année de production : 2002 Year of Release / Année de Sortie : 2002 Cor / Colors / Couleurs : Cor / Color / Couleur Media / Support de diffusion : Aspect Ratio / Format Image : Sound Mix / Format Son : Estimated Budget / Budget prévisionnel : TAGS : Portrait PARTICIPANTS / PARTICIPANTS Djibril DIOP Mambéty................................................................
