"Black Girl" Ousmane Sembene's first feature-length film was also the first sub-Saharan African movie to gain international recognition. A Senegalese woman, working as a governess for a French family, finds her duties reduced to those of a maid after the family moves from Dakar to the south of France. In her new country, the woman is constantly made aware of her race and mistreated by her employers, and she falls into isolation and despair. A major statement against the lingering culture of colonialism. "Incisive, eloquent...the climax is painful in its simplicity; the conclusion will simply haunt you" (Gene Siskel, Chicago Tribune). French with English subtitles. 65 minutes. |
