I just read a brief squib about Safi Faye's newest
film in a recent issue
of "Africa International" published in Paris. I
can track it down if you like.

Hi, this reminds me to ask the list for assistance
locating Safi Faye's films for use in my
"Cinematic Portraits of Africa" course. I tried
during the first year I taught it to locate her
work, to no avail. Is there anyone out there who
can give me a hint? I recall even writing in my
broken French to the Paris address given to me by
Myphedu (sp?) Films, but no luck then. Perhaps
things have changed now? Anyone have a copy to
lend?

My email is:

Thanks,
