Woubi chéri
Philip Brooks, Laurent Bocahut
1998 - 62 min - Digital vidéo - Couleur - France

This documentary looks at gay life in contemporary Africa. In "Woubi chéri", the "branchés" gays of the Ivory Coast tell their own stories, bringing a new sense of gay and lesbian life as it has never been seen before - its humour, emotions, politics and traditions, its pleasure and pain.
Our characters take us on an exploration of their cultural and sexual identities, leading us into their world as they see and experience it. The parameters are different and the experiences of homosexual Africans change the notion of the what is "gay", what is "straight" for those in the West as well.
