About the films
Buud Yam
Burkina Faso filmmaker Gaston Kabore brings us a story about Wend-Kuuni, the son of a sorceress, who embarks on a quest after his sister falls ill. His long and eventful journey to find a healer for his sister ultimately becomes a journey of self-discovery.
Zan Boko
Another film by Burkina Faso filmmaker Gaston Kabore, Zan Boko portrays the effects of urbanization on traditional village life through the story of a single farmer, Tinga.
