RIP Ousmane Sembene and Djbril Diop Mambety, the true fathers of Senegalese cinema

i saw only "xala" - its very good. disturbing but realistic in its portrayal. there are many poor and crippled like in louis bunuel's "los olvidados." i guess more sembene films can be found at "criterion" or "connoiseur" video

nope, you won't find anything by African directors from overpriced Criterions. they only release European, North American and Japanese films, plus a total of two Chinese films (actually one Taiwanese film and one Hong Kong film, nothing from mainland China!), two or three Australian films, one Iranian film, and one film by a Mexican-US director. Nothing from S. America, Africa, India, rest of Asia. Kino video and New Yorker video have released a number of African films though, including Sembene.

Ok, I forgot to add, one Jamaican film too, but the director and producer were British.
