  2. This was Ousmane Sembene's first feature - last year we discussed his second, Mandabi, which is also great (but very different to this one)

    "Black Girl" is a very short film (only 60 minutes) but packs a real punch. It's one of only 2 African films on the latest BFI 100 Greatest Films list.

    Our discussion of Sembene's "Mandabi" is here -

  3. Our latest podcast discusses Ousmane Sembene's "Black Girl" ("La Noire de ...") (1966)

    A young woman from Senegal arrives in France, expecting to be working as a Nanny for a white French couple - instead she finds she's actually working as a domestic servant and becomes increasingly alienated. Meanwhile the white couple are blissfully unaware of any problems and see nothing wrong with their behaviour.
