Jean Rouch
1967 - France - Couleur - 89'
The African cousins of Bibi Fricotin, Lam the shepherd, Illo the fisherman and Damouré the womanising horseman leave their village to make their fortune in Ghana, then return to tell lies. The archetype of a friendly cinema, almost family made, born by a ciné-troop applying to the seventh art the practice of automatic writing and free jazz. Obviously it's Rouch himself who is travelling here, and for whom any pretext is an excuse to make the plot more delirious.
