Curiozități

Mandabi is a 1968 film written and directed by Senegalese filmmaker Ousmane Sembène. The film is based on Sembène's francophone novel The Money-Order and it is the first feature film in the Wolof language, Sembène's native tongue, and the first feature-length film in an African language. Since most of the Senegalese population at the time did not understand French, Sembène wanted to create cinema for Wolof speakers.
