I have enjoyed looking through your catalogue of African films, so many interesting ones. I am trying to find the name (and a copy of) a film I saw in Vancouver in the 80's, early 80's I believe, that was beautifully filmed and amazing as it was a feature without a word of dialogue, yet it told the story of villagers being captured for the slave trade who are freed during their journey to the port by the powers of a shaman who deliberately allows himself to be caught for a time. It was a Mali-France co-production. I wonder if you have ever heard of it or if you may have any tips on how I can find it. Many thanks for your consideration of this request! Margot Vanderham
VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
