豆知識

Ceddo, also known as The Outsiders, is a 1977 Senegalese drama film directed by Ousmane Sembène.

Background

When questioned on what year the film takes place Ousmane said "I can't give a date. These events occurred in the 18th and 19th century and are still occurring". The story can be viewed as an abridged version of West-African history, and the village as a microcosm of the continent. For Sembène, the Ceddo embody the resistance of a culture and a traditional way of life to the encroachments of Islam, Christianity and colonialism.
