This program is part of a memorial tribute to director Djibril Diop Mambéty, who died last year. Mambéty's short works foretold the exuberant creativity of his subsequent feature Touki Bouki. Transferring his experience in experimental theater to cinematic innovation, in Badou Boy Mambéty presents little stories on the screen, interweaving them with others on the soundtrack. The film revolves around what might be called a punk kid (and assorted others) in Dakar. The humor and conniving characters sometimes employ slapstick, with the filmmaker doubling as actor in one Chaplinesque scene. And no chance is missed to mock authority. (65 mins) Shown with: Contras' City (Djibril Diop Mambéty, Senegal, 1969 27 mins): A docu-fiction of Dakar's European tourists and locals; it is the contrasts-of music, architecture, religions, money-that fascinate.
