Reactualization of the ritual and the sacred in the Ivorian cinema

It is about making an incursion into the Ivorian culture. Borrowing from the cultural reality the facts of the traditions of the Agni, Tagbana and Malinké communities and present them on the screen. This update is a way to enhance the Ivorian cultural heritage under the leadership of our filmmakers who have understood that no one will come to do it for them. Thus, the dance, funerals, marriage, libation and divination have served as arguments to expose the rich cultural potential of these communities.
