Additional Info:
Alice Diop was born in France to Senegalese parents. She traveled to Dakar for the first time with her father’s remains. She set up her camera in the courtyard of the house where her mother lived before leaving for France in 1966. Thus, she became familiar with the daily life of her aunts and cousins. Then she realized that she was filming the life she might have had if her mother had stayed in Senegal.
