RAW Material Company invites you to a screening of Mati Diop's Atlantics on Friday December 13th, 2019 at the Cinéma Empire, Médina.

Atlantique (2019)

In a popular suburb of Dakar, workers on the construction site of a futuristic tower, without pay for months, decide to leave the country by the ocean for a better future. Among them is Souleiman, the lover of Ada, promised to another. Days later, a fire ruins Ada's wedding and a mysterious fever starts to spread among the girls in the neighborhood. Issa, a young police officer, starts to investigate, unaware that the spirits of the drowned men have returned. While some of them have come for revenge, Souleiman has returned to say goodbye to Ada. 

This screening will be followed by a discussion with Mati Diop, Ken Bugul and Angèle Assie Diabang.
