Zaïre, le cycle du serpent
In the heart of the African continent, after thirty years of independence and twenty-five years of Mobutism… what future awaits Zaire? Over the course of five weeks, Thierry Michel filmed Kinshasa, the capital of Zaire, from every angle. A Kinshasa marked by poverty, beggars, outcasts, and the forgotten. A Kinshasa also inhabited by the business bourgeoisie, religious leaders, and military dignitaries. And finally, a Kinshasa whose working-class neighborhoods bury their dead, victims of the dictatorship.
