Chef du Quartier Trailer

“Chef du Quartier” explores an aged body as the eye through which a space can be perceived. It focuses on telling the story of a 93-year-old, Sekou Traore, who is the chief of a small community called Bamako Coura in Bamako, Mali. It is a multidisciplinary project that fuses photography and film as mediums to collect stories of his life and the history of Mali, to choreograph a dance performance that preserves his memory.
