Producers' Forum - Faat Kiné (2001, Senegal, 121 min) directed by Ousmane Sembène at Scribe Video Center, 4212 Chestnut Street, 3 FL.

Set in Dakar, Senegal, the film offers a critical look at post-colonial Senegal and the status of women in that society. It gives a clear glimpse of Dakar in all of its contradictions of poverty and wealth, tradition and modernity.
