There are so many films which are suitable for children, but I would
propose for instance:
Yaaba and Le Cri du coeur (Heart's Cry) by Idrissa Ouedraogo,
Burkina Faso
Ballon d'or (is it Golden football in English?) sorry I don't remember
the name of the director
Halfaouine (Child of the Terraces) by Ferid Boughedir, Tunisia (for
pre-adolescents)
Nyamanton by Cheick Oumar Sissoko, Mali
Minka by Mohamed Camara, Guinee
Many of them are in distribution by California Newsreel, Ballon d'or is
distributed by BFI in Europe but I don't know about US.
