charlie kay chakkar mein
exhibits three different shades , says director manish srivastava .
“go goa gone” fame actor anand tiwari’s character in the upcoming suspense thriller “charlie kay chakkar mein” exhibits three different shades , says director manish srivastava .
in the title track of ‘charlie kay chakkar mein’ , anand tiwari is seen in the charlie chaplin avatar but unlike the character’s usual funny side , anand explores a funny but mean side .
“charlie kay chakkar mein” also starring naseeruddin shah among others , produced by karan arora and directed by srivastava under the banner picture thoughts production , is releasing on november 6 .
mumbai : naseeruddin shah , lead actor of upcoming suspense thriller ' charlie kay chakkar mein ' feels that film ' s success does not depend on its promotion but merits .
c harlie ke chakkar mein is a thriller with many twists , writes jahnavi patel .
the charlie kay chakkar mein title song has been composed by rohit kulkarni , sung by nisha mascarence and lyrics written by karan arora . directed by manish shrivastava and starring stalwart naseeruddin shah , charlie kay chakkar mein releases on november 6 . it also features anand tiwari , amit sial , nishant lal , manasi rachh , disha arora , aanchal nandrajog and manasi rachh .
naseeruddin shah whose performance in wednesday is still fresh in audience mind will be once again seen in an investigative thriller ‘charlie kay chakkar mein’ whose 2nd trailer is out and is raging online .
the ridiculous song ‘kutta kaat gaya’ from the film ‘charlie kay chakkar mein’ is perhaps the weirdest and most bizarre bollywood song , apart from the fact that it also endorses and even encourages youth to take drugs .
badi machli jaal mein na aaye . . . is liye choti machli ko kaante mein phasna padta hai
one of the lines by naseeruddin shah in ‘charlie ke chakkar mein’ turns out to describe the film perfectly : “poori ki poori film chhod gaye hain , phir bhi samajh mein nahin aa raha kahaani kya hai . ”
amit sial recently wowed us with his performance in titli and he continues to do so in charlie kay chakker mein . sial puts up quite a genuine act in this film .
drugs . cops . gangsters . youngsters . mix ‘em up , and you get ‘charlie ke chakkar mein’ . or at least that’s what the film sets out to do .
nisha mascarence is heard in the title track ‘ charlie kay chakkar mein ‘ , which starts with the sound of ‘who the f is charlie’ ! a random piece that doesn’t really have much of a flow to it , it tries to get all haunting and intriguing but doesn’t quite succeed in doing so .
charlie kay chakkar mein has nothing to offer but a novel concept and a great performance by naseeruddin shah . otherwise , the film is a ‘raita’ with too many characters and sub - plots . i am going with a 2 / 5 for the film .
' charlie kay chakkar mein ' continues the upbeat feeling , but in a pop style and a lot more partyish . a nice song to get in the mood for a party and to energize you . it could easily be put on repeat and enjoyed for a while .
watch or not ? : charlie kay chakkar mein is a missed opportunity . it could have been a much better gripping drama but it settles to become an average one . watch it if you are a fan of the dark deed films but mostly you can watch it for naseeruddin shah .
' charlie kay chakkar mein ' story is very simple but strangely it ' s narrated in a complicated manner . even this is an imaginary situation which may or may not be true . the treatment to the film is definitely very edgy and a thriller kind ,
he said .
' charlie kay chakkar mein ' was shot in a span of 19 days in 2011 at a first copy cost of inr 3 . 5 millions ; approximately usd 55 , 000 . four years after the production it was released all over india at a distribution cost of ten times its production budget .
verdict : a thriller that keeps you hooked till the end . at a point in charlie kay chakkar mein , naseeruddin shah tells his subordinate , ` ` poori film dekh li par kahani samajh mein nahi aa rahi hai ` ` . that line could easily describe most of this thriller . the film begins with a group of friends , which includes [ ] . . .

charlie ke chakkar mein has all the elements of a great indie thriller — hallucinatory drug haze , wayward youngsters , forbidden sex , cops in shades of grey tied to sleazy villains , a tickingtime - bomb narrative style to keep you on the edge of your seat .
drugs . cops . gangsters . youngsters . mix ` em up , and you get ` charlie ke chakkar mein ` . or at least that ` s what the film sets out to do . which , if done effectively , could have been a fun caper .
anand tiwari is actually one of those actors who is most reliable when it comes to forming the supporting cast . even in the smallest of roles , he manages to shine through . with charlie kay chakkar mein , he does a fine job but it is probably the writing that does not allow him to give his best . we have seen him in better roles than this .
naseeruddin shah’s performance , like always , is brilliant . his portrayal as the investigative office is precisely what is needed . he hasn’t overdone his role at all . with no big bollywood release this week , charlie ke chakkar mein can make for a decent watch . rediff rating :
another version of the title song ‘ charlie kay chakkar mein ‘ , though with a different tone and sound to it , is heard with neha kakkar coming back on the scene again . this one has indian idol fame abhijit sawant joining neha but even together , they aren’t really able to bring much on board , despite a ‘desi’ rhythm to the song . a number that can be given a quick skip .
i don ' t think any film can be successful with promotions . a successful film can become more successful with promotions . but if any film does well , that ' s on the basis of its merits . so i ' m hoping that with ' charlie kay chakkar mein ' , this fact is either proved ,
he said to a query about the film ' s low - key promotion at screening of the film on thursday .
expectations one didn’t really expect a soundtrack for charlie kay chakkar mein . hence , it was a surprise to know that there as many as four tracks composed for the film . since the naseeruddin shah starrer deals with drugs , it is pretty much on the cards that the musical team of harry anand , vishal mishra , gurinder seagal , rohit kulkarni , sandeep nath , karan arora and nishant lal would have come together for a psychedelic trance score .
i’ve been a huge fan of charlie chaplin since childhood . i tried my best to look like him .
charlie kay chakkar mein original motion picture soundtrack ep is one of the gorgeous album of harry anand vishal mishra gurinder seagal rohit kulkarni . album ' s primary genre is bollywood , it was released on november 6 , 2015 and contains 4 tracks of duration 13 minutes and 40 seconds with a soft , smooth , and pleasant sound . . . to preview any song , mouse over the play button and click play . click to download button to download mp3 . .

drugs . cops . gangsters . youngsters . mix ‘em up , and you get ‘charlie ke chakkar mein’ . or at least that’s what the film sets out to do . which , if done effectively , could have been a fun caper . what you get instead is a confused mish - mash of scenes , with characters doing lines , snorting , shooting up , shooting at and so on . and on .
charlie kay chakkar mein tries hard to come across as a dark tale from the by lanes of mumbai but unfortunately it sticks to something which is already seen . there are multiple story lines and after a point it is ridiculous to expect the audience to maintain its attention . in an attempt to come across as a dark drama , the film turns out only smoke and no fire . the makers introduce a multiple characters like an anurag kashyap film but fail to do justice to them . not all stories are ended properly and the incomplete thread leaves you a little confused .
the uncensored version of the title song of charlie kay chakkar mein could land the makers in trouble , for it’s too hot to handle ! the song , nicknamed let’s play boy , features hottie elena roxana maria fernandes who makes the temperatures soar with her act . the song’s visuals are hot and play on your senses , and for those interested , it has some double meaning lyrics as well ( in the uncensored version ) , including ‘who the f * * k is charlier ? ’ and ‘it’s a catch 69 situation’ . in fact , # whothefischarlie is trending on twitter .
director manish srivastav manages to create a decent amount of mystery around the plot but fails because of the knack to handle multiple sub - plots . there is a cliched representation of the gangsters and i could’ve really loved to see something new . the concept of homicides and it’s footage was quite a killer one but sadly it does not develop further into a nail - biting affair . the lighting is kept quite predictably dark in the film . surprisingly , the director does not at all play with the background score and i find it amusing . crime thrillers need a certain amount of music to keep them steady and charlie kay chakkar mein misses that .
in the title track , anand is seen in the charlie chaplin avatar but unlike the character’s usual funny side , anand explores a funny but mean side .
the story of charlie kay chakkar mein starts inversely with each new twist unfolding at the most unexpected time . it is a story of three different characters and mainly deals with the nature of truth . what happens when addl . commissioner of police , sanket pujari ( naseeruddin shah ) is assigned an unusual case of multiple homicides . an interesting twist is the fact that they have been caught on camera . what lies as the biggest task on the shoulders of pujari is identifying the nature of truth in this tale . the difference between what the eyes can see and what the actual truth is . considering that suspense forms a key in the story , it would be best not to give any spoilers about this tale !
film ' charlie kay chakkar mein ' , an investigative thriller produced by karan arora under banner ' picture thoughts production ' , directed by manish srivastav starring naseeruddin shah , amit sial , anand tiwari , subrat dutta , auroshikha dey and manasi rachh is slated to release on 6th november this year . producer – karan arora director – manish srivastav writers – manish srivastav and amit sial co producers – manish srivastav and amit sial executive producers – mayur srivastva , amitabh aurora associate producer – chintan kapadia cinematographer - s v visheshwar sound designer – ravi dev singh background score - arfaaz anurag music composers – rohit kulkarnai , harry anand and vishal mishra editors - ashmit kunder , archit rastogi post production supervisor - neeraj kumar click to subscribe - urltoken like & follow us on facebook , twitter & instagram for regular updates in the industry - facebook - urltoken twitter - urltoken instagram - urltoken
drugs . cops . gangsters . youngsters . mix ' em up , and you get ' charlie kechakkar mein ' . or at least that ' s what the film had set out to do . which , if done effectively , could have been a fun caper . what you get instead is a confused mish - mash of scenes , with characters doing lines , snorting , shooting up , and shooting at and so on . overall , this film fails to engross viewers .
the film ' s opening credits have barely - dressed ladies crooning , ' did charlie do it ? ' and other such lines . the idea is to bring in a 007 kind of coolth , but the effect is nowhere close .
matching the general tone , naseer vamps away happily , nodding sagely and blowing smoke rings . he gets to be massaged by a luscious half - naked lovely , and spout some hilarious lines . one of them turns out to describe the film perfectly : ‘poori ki poori film chhod gaye hain , phir bhi samajh mein nahin aa raha kahaani kya hai . ”
the movie is divided into two parts - - the first gives us an idea about the crime and the other half is the investigation . a bunch of youngsters ( amit sial , anand tiwari , manasi rachh , disha arora , aanchal nandrajog and nishant lal ) , who are high on some ‘charlie’ ( cocaine ) get into a brawl with a young man ( sanam singh ) at a club and kill him accidentally .
a big delivery of ‘charlie’ is hijacked , and the ‘bhai - log’ behind it want their ‘powder’ and the people whodunit . naseer plays the investigating cop , as he and his colleagues sift through some incriminating ‘found footage’ of a bunch of young people ( tiwari , sial , rachh , arora and co ) sniping at each other in some kind of an underground den with graffiti scrawled on it , and bodies sprawled in it .
they have to deliver two suitcases full of ' charlie ' to the dealers but they end up dying or killing one another . all this while , one of them , who is an aspiring director , shoots the entire episode on a camera . naseeruddin shah plays the investigative office along with auroshikha dey . they try to solve the murder mystery with the help of the footage found in the camera . the first half is bland , as the crime is unveiled in flashbacks . but post - interval , we’re treated to some interesting twists and turns .
“anand’s character has almost three different shades , which is as if he’s playing three different characters in the film itself . right from the beginning to the end as film progresses his character undergoes a drastic transformation , ” srivastava told ians .
interestingly , it was “shahid” actor rajkummar rao who was initially going to essay anand’s character . “rajkummar rao was also part of the rehearsals till a certain point of time , but unfortunately our schedule clashed with the dates of another of his film . that was a bigger , commercial film and so he had to leave our film , ” said srivastava .
the makers then held discussions with anand . “he is a very busy actor and has been part of numerous big projects , but when he heard the script and knew more about his interesting character in the film , he immediately gave his consent . ”
anand has also been assistant director in films such as “the president is coming” and “barfi ! ” and has even directed short films . but his strongest skill remains acting , which he depicted in “detective byomkesh bakshy ! ” earlier this year .
the film swings rapidly between the mobsters and the guys and gals being targeted by them , as well as the cops trying to unravel the mystery . equally rapidly , you stop taking any of it seriously because the characters are busy acting away : even anand tiwari , who’s usually reliable , is reduced to mouthing lines , and sial , who was so effective in ‘titli’ , becomes a blur of mannerisms .

going by the song , it’s a film to be avoided watching in a theater .
the lyrics and the poor stylistic effort of the song – a half rural rap song if ever there is one – and sung in a lackluster manner which sounds half - drunk and half - asleep without much of effort , is enough to make anyone who sees the song ensure that this is one film they will avoid going to watch in the a theater even if they are given a free ticket .
the song opens with this dreadful line : ‘boy friend bhaag gaya , ya kutta kaat gaya’ ( boyfriend ran away or dog took a bite ) . in the video is item girl shweta sharma , who looks totally unimpressive .
the promoters of the film may have thought that this would turn out to be another ‘kolavari d’ effect song , but unfortunately not so .
‘kolavari d’ was a quirky , superb number which one could hum for months , and move to .
the song ‘kutta kaat gaya’ is one which after listening to , one can only hope that the next time one hears it is in another life time . the song is composed by rohit kulkarni , penned by abhiruchi chand , crooned by nayantara bhatkal and abhijeet sawant .
one wonders if an actor of the caliber of naseeruddin shah , who is in the cast of the film , would have done the film if the songs were seen by him first . probably not .

a few mysterious killings lead the cops to a drug deal gone awry . the only way for the investigative officer ( naseeruddin shah ) to nab the culprits is by examining found footage featuring those dead , shot days before the event .
the video replays the incidents as they happened . as things begin to unfold , the cops realise there ' s more to the aforesaid crime than meets the eye . they trace down a witness who can solve the jigsaw puzzle but he fabricates his story . who is the mastermind ?
though the ' whodunit thriller ' manages to hold your attention , solely for maintaining the suspense quotient , various factors go against it . for instance , non - linear narration , found - footage photography and inconsequential banter among the youngsters . also , too many characters make the plot convoluted .
while a twist in the tale adds to the fun , an excess of it makes the film look tedious and far - fetched . while deceitful confessions and shocking revelations keep the tension mounting , an overdose of these kill the joy .
naseeruddin ' s shah clever ( as always ) acting , ably supported by amit sial and anand tiwari , makes this crime mystery gripping , despite the flaws . if you can keep a tab on the multiple characters and their ulterior motives , this one is quite unpredictable and keeps you guessing .

is a thriller that loses its grip in the middle but manages to surprise towards the end .
to save themselves from trouble , they have to finish the work that the dead man was appointed to do .
the same series of events narrated three - four times with a different story each time might get confusing but you won’t stay puzzled for too long . eventually , it manages to surprise .
the abusive language is frequently muted , and the silences can get annoying after a while . the actors have done a decent job . subrata datta , who plays a drug peddler , delivers a fine performance .
we did expect to see more of anand tiwari , as we know his potential as an actor , but there ' s really not much .
what is a r rahman doing at a dubai mall ? reader talib sends us a picture .
what’s good : a good concept clubbed with an ace actor like naseeruddin shah definitely works in favour of the film . of course , that remains to be the only good part in the film .
what’s bad : there is a constant sense of stereotyping when it comes to handling the script . the representation of drugs , murders and dark sins is treated quite typically by the director .
since the film starts backwards , the scenes are a little mis - mashed . the representation of drug lords , underworld and of course the police department is quite cliched in the film . i could have watched the film minus those smoke rings which are so stylishly blown by the commissioner’s character . there is ample of fodder in the story , it is just that it is not placed wisely in the film .
naseeruddin shah is an actor who can pull off anything and everything . of course , i would have to say it is a delight watching him in such films , rather than welcome back ‘s blind wanted bhai . he gives a decent performance in the film and keeps it afloat .
the pace is rapid but that’s what makes it confusing . even though the film is kept tight with a run time of 1 hour 42 minutes , we don’t really decipher much about the story in that time .

manish srivastav’s debut film is like a sad dish that takes all your great ingredients and your enthusiasm and turns them into an underwhelming mess .
it’s even got a superb cast in naseeruddin shah , anand tiwari and amit sial . but manish srivastav’s debut film is like that sad dish that takes all your great ingredients and your enthusiasm and turns them into an underwhelming mess .
the story is fairly straightforward — a shipment of drugs goes missing , and everyone connected to it is baying for the blood of those who stole it while simultaneously trying desperately to chase it down .
sanket pujari ( shah ) , the cop assigned to the case , stumbles upon an unusual lead — video tapes that showcase a group of youngsters ( tiwari , sial and gang ) drinking and shooting up , and also some sort of a basement where people are being shot .
the film shifts jaggedly between the video footage and the cop’s investigation , as the latter uncovers a larger conspiracy at play .
the problem lies in how predictable that larger conspiracy is . each twist can be seen a mile away , and still is made to play out with all the intensity of an earth - shattering revelation . long after the audience has figured out the whodunit , supercop pujari is still struggling to piece together the ‘puzzle’ .
to make matters worse , the film is peppered with corny scenes such as the one where pujari is serviced by a cooing , scantily clad starlet , in something straight out of a crummy z - grade flick . sadly , the script isn’t self - aware enough to pass for subversion . this movie is just stuck between a rock and a hard place — too serious to qualify as grindhouse feature , too silly to be an entertaining thriller . fans of either genre will likely find themselves underwhelmed .
except for tiwari , none of the other actors manages to keep you interested . the attempts at depicting the ‘contemporary youth’ wear out their welcome in a jiffy , the montages of cocaine - snorting , heroin - injection , gunplay and titillation becoming rather tiresome rather fast . it’s an achievement that such a small indie film managed to secure a theatrical release , but this film fails to capitalise on that opportunity .
anyone who has seen just a handful of thrillers is likely to be bored ; even those new to such films are unlikely to experience any surprise . all in all , the most entertaining element is probably the trippy graffiti plastered all over that spooky basement . makes you wish the whole movie could have been that much fun .
the underworld crime drama complete with murder mystery elements , street lingo , drug mafia , cool cops etcetera was a fresh idea a decade ago . now , having seen everything there is in this genre , what ' s the point if a film doesn ' t bring anything fresh to the defunct combo ?
we see a police team led by naseeruddin shah , examining a so - called complicated case . a drug deal goes awry . three young people are found murdered in a garage . and the cops find video recordings of their activities a few weeks prior to the fateful day . so we flashback to the turn of events . we see that the group of friends , all strugglers in the film industry , like to party hard and are drug - addicts . they get embroiled in a hit - and - run case , but what gets the incident more complicated is that the person they bumped off was connected to the underworld .
now , they now have to finish off a drug deal in order to wash their hands off the hit - and - run accident . naturally everything goes awry , and the cops try unraveling the motivation behind the murders of the three friends .
the film starts off promisingly as we see the lives of the gang , their drug - fuelled parties , silly banter , and simmering love tensions . all this is recorded by a camera - happy friend who claims to be recording this for a
private film
. so the camera is on during fights , altercations , heck , even when they have that hit - and - run accident !
then on we see the cops – naseeruddin shah and team - break their heads over the case . meanwhile , shah ' s character calls a woman
showpiece
, and another character explains how women should be treated like animals and always kept on a leash .
writer - director manish srivastav displays style , but that cannot compensate for the lack of substance . he folds in too much , too soon in the movie . the film did have the potential to be a breezy crime - caper , even if a conventional one . but it is overburdened with too many sub - plots and too many improbable developments .
you can sense the twists in the film a mile away , and it ' s disappointing that the film does not surprise you at any juncture . if only , it ' s annoying to see how the makers mistake a convoluted plot for being layered .
there are new developments for the heck of it ( imagine someone putting up a hit - and - run accident on youtube and boasting about its popularity , despite being involved in the accident themselves ) , and too many for you to track or care about .
the talented cast does well . but the astute performances cannot save the film that ' s too clever by half .
director : manish srivastav writers : amit sial , manish srivastav cast : naseeruddin shah , disha arora , auroshikhadey strength : naseeruddin ' s acting , plot weakness : weak direction , failure of engagement runtime : 102 minutes rating : 2 . 5 / 5
plot : the film deals with a group of drug addict friends , who get entangled with illegal drug trade nexus , leading to multiple homicides .
the first half is bland , as the crime is unveiled in flashbacks , however , we ' re treated to some interesting twists and turns post - interval . the same series of events narrated three - four times with a different story each time might get confusing but you won ' t stay puzzled for too long . eventually , it manages to surprise . the abusive language is frequently muted , and the silences can get annoying after a while . the actors have done a decent job . subratadatta , who plays a drug peddler , delivers a fine performance . nishantlal , the aspiring filmmaker , plays the desperate creep to perfection . naseeruddin shah ' s performance , like always , is brilliant . his portrayal as the investigative office is precisely what is needed . he hasn ' t overdone his role at all .

music the album kick - starts on expected lines with neha kakkar and aj singh coming together for yet another ‘ manali trance ‘ [ the shaukeens ] kind of an outing with ‘ i am single ‘ . a naughty and playful number that has a good rhythm to it , this one may not boast of lyrics worth remembering but scores on the simplicity quotient . all in all , a decent start for the soundtrack with the kind of beats and singing that tease indeed or a good eight minute duration .
actor amit sial turns singer for a song that has been titled ‘ saali bhand ‘ . one wonders if there are no censor regulations on play when it comes to the music since rest assured , with censor guidelines in play , these words would raise quite a few eyebrows once the film is set to release on screens . as a standalone song too , this one is totally avoidable and one wonders how it would be utilized in the film .

our life revolves around perception of truth as we act only on our ability to judge it . truth though is a fickle thing , para
doxically because it only occurs in absolution ; rest is only our interpretation that allows us to live in a certain subjective truth .
with a title like ' i am single ' you know what you can expect . however the song has more to it than you might expect , the trance sound is quite different from other songs , even with all the party and remix songs we have . the sound and melody along with the vocals which fit great with it , it definitely doesn ` t sound bad . especially with a dark movie like this it might go great with it .
the third ' song ' is ' let ' s play boy ' , but it ` s not really a song , more a cool and stylish beat ( and video ) with some female vocals . but it does make a cool looking theme song for the movie .

download and stream the full movie at urltoken buud yam is the story of a young man who lost his mother and father as a small child . in spite of his adoptive family ' s profound affection he lives a distressing tragedy .
i tend to miss films that are told with heart . the massive knowledge and showing off isn ' t always needed when venturing into making of a film . buud yam is very simplistic but as many times with african cinema , brings out deeper colors of the content ' s state . the key in buud yam is the protagonist going to a journey and finding himself , accepting his state in order to grow as a human being . i ' m not familiar with wend kuuni to which buud yam is a relative or even sequel but perhaps seeing these two films back to back could reveal their colors better . nevertheless the magical feeling and mysticism that the film conveys likely pays tribute to the history and roots…
in 1997 , buud yam was shown at the cannes film festival during directors fortnight and had its north american premiere at the toronto international film festival . it won the etalon de yennega ( the grand prize ) at the 15th ouagadougou panafrican film and television festival .
in 1997 , buud yam was shown at the cannes film festival during directors fortnight and had its north american premiere at the toronto international film festival . [ 1 ] it won the etalon de yennega ( the grand prize ) at the 15th ouagadougou panafrican film and television festival . [ 7 ]
gaston graduated in history and cinema in paris . he became worldly famous thanks to his features wend kuuni ( french cesar for best francophone film 1985 ) , zan boko ( silver tanit , carthage film festival 1988 ) , rabi ( special jury prize , carthage film festival 1992 ) and buud yam ( etalon de yennenga , fespaco 1997 ) .
in 2005 , director gaston kaboré , who won the top prize at fespaco in 1997 for his film buud yam , opened a training school for new filmmakers in ouagadougou . the school , named imagine , was built with millions of cfa of kaboré ' s own money and opened its doors for the panafrican film and television festival of ouagadougou 2005 .
my issues with buud yam are pretty similar to my issues with its predecessor , wend kuuni : both films feel pretty staged and actorly , and though i have no vendetta against apparent artifice in cinema , this has the effect , for me , of scratching out anything that might come out between the lines . i prefer this one a smidge due to the occasionally long shots depicting some element of life in burkina faso , though these intermittent scenes rarely seem to be used for much outside of spatial establishment and narrative contextualization .
filmography : regard sur le vie fespaco ( 1979 ) ; wend kuuni / god’s gift ( 1982 ) ; zan boko ( 1988 ) ; rabi ( 1991 ) ; la vie en fumée ( 1992 ) ; madame hado ( 1992 ) ; un arbre appelé karité ( 1993 ) ; chronique d’un échec annoncé ( 1993 ) ; roger le fonctionnaire ( 1993 ) ; lumière et compagnie ( 1995 ) ; buud yam ( 1997 ) ; le loup et la cigogne ( 2007 ) ; l’afrique vue par… [ africa seen by… ] – deux mille générations d’africains ( 2009 ) .
i ' m discovering a gentle calm about african cinema , not to mention a certain primal offering that doesnt feel manipulated and focus grouped to death . buud yam encompasses this idea freely . it moves at it ' s own pace in it ' s own methods . following the story of a young man in search of a healer for his sick sister . it ' s simple like a classic fable but deeply resonant in terms of it ' s universality of trying to help someone you care about . it ' s not exactly polished but that sort of adds to the charm . african cinema tends to be so steeped in culture and history that some things probably go straight over my head , yet it ' s these moments of purity that brings something special to the cinema we tend to lack here in america .
many of the african films that reach western audiences are produced in senegal . in fact , senegalese cinema enjoys a renown and longevity unknown in other countries south of the sahara , due , in part , to the pioneering efforts of ousmane sembène and paulin soumanou vieyra . senegal gained independence from france on 4 april 1960 , but it was not until the early 1970s that the newly independent state created a national infrastructure for the development and promotion of senegalese cinema : in 1974 the société d ' importation , distribution , et exploitation cinématographique ( sidec ) and the now defunct société nationale du cinéma ( snc ) ; and finally in 1984 , the société nationale de promotion du cinéma ( snpc ) , whose goal was to take over all functions of the snc and to assist the initiatives of sidec .
nigeria , with 120 million inhabitants , is the most populous country on the continent , and shares with ghana the phenomenon of a burgeoning video economy . although nigeria gained independence in 1960 , indigenous feature filmmaking did not begin until 1970 with the lebanese coproduction
by the african american ossie davis ( 1917–2005 ) . during the early 1970s , three or four features were produced every year , and until the early 1980s there was a trend toward higher quality films , including 35 mm production . the nigerian film corporation was established in 1979 with the mandate of encouraging local film production . ola balogun ( b . 1945 ) , a novelist and playwright who was trained in cinematography at l ' institut des hautes études cinématographiques ( idhec ) in paris , is nigeria ' s most prominent filmmaker , known for directing comedies and musicals . he has produced or directed at least one feature every year since 1972 , the year he directed
( 1975 ) is sub - saharan africa ' s first musical ; it spurred a series of films incorporating yoruba popular theater on film . other notable films include
( 1983 ) were largely inspired by current events . by the end of the 1970s , and as lagos became more dangerous at night , many middle - class homeowners turned to videocassette players so they could watch video movies in the safety of their homes . video film production is an important industry in nigeria and is practiced as a solution to film distribution bureaucracy . although some criticize their technical shortcomings , the impact of video films as an expression of cultural identity cannot be denied .

with : wend kuuni . . . . . serge yanogo pughneere . . . . . amssatou maiga komkieta . . . . . severine oueddouda
to avoid his mother’s fate and save his sister , the youth sets forth on horseback on an arduous quest that will take him through forests and across deserts . at last , nearly dead himself , he stumbles onto a wise old healer whose potions cure pughneere . with heartfelt apologies and much rejoicing , the villagers reinstate wend kuuni as a member in good standing of the community .
on one level , the story is similar to western and eastern myths about the hero and his quest for a lost grail , or , in this case , a magical medicine . not only does it restore health to the sick girl , but it dissipates the clouds of superstition , intolerance and suspicion that hang over the otherwise happy village . kabore’s message , arising out of the story itself , is that we must be tolerant of people different from ourselves .
as wend kuuni , yanogo is a dignified young horseman with a faraway look in his eyes , who knows he is set apart from his native - born companions . it is easy to see why the two graceful teenage girls , pughneere and her friend komkieta ( severine oueddouda ) , adore him . last scene sets the stage for a third round of wend kuuni stories , as the young hero asks himself who his real father is .
kabore is a masterful raconteur able to hold the viewer’s attention despite the typical slow pace of african films . he tells his story in exceptionally clear , simple images that are restful to look at , aided by jean - noel ferragut’s sharp - edged cinematography . composer michel portal adds an unexpected modern note to the timeless story through his musical commentary , combining native instruments with a soft jazz sound .
production : ( burkina faso ) a cinecom ( burkina faso ) / caroline ( france ) co - production . ( international sales : caroline . ) produced , directed , written by gaston jean - marie kabore .

set in the haunting landscapes of burkina faso , a man’s hunt for a traditional healer to help his ill sister leads him to confront his own inner being .
this film is not currently playing on mubi but 30 other great films are . see what’s now showing
one of the most impressive african films i have ever seen . a fascinating journey which reminds of another film called yeelen . these are myths to live by , and the most traditional forms of oral story - telling get passed on through cinema .
a great example of a film where a very simple and straightforward story , through serene and focused determination , is elevated to something truly beautiful . spirituality and supernatural forces connect and intermingle with the raw forces of nature and life in general , manifesting itself through one man ' s journey of burkina faso ' s incredible landscape . the acting feels natural and portal ' s music fits perfectly .

burkina ' s contribution to african cinema started with the establishment of the film festival fespaco ( festival panafricain du cinéma et de la télévision de ouagadougou ) , which was launched as a film week in 1969 and gained government support and permanent structures in 1972 . it is the largest film exhibition venue in sub - saharan africa , with more than half a million attendants , and takes place in odd numbered years in march . burkina is also one of the countries producing the most feature films in africa . many of the nation ' s filmmakers are known internationally and have won international prizes . for many years the headquarters of the federation of panafrican filmmakers ( fepaci ) was in
, rescued in 1983 from a period of moribund inactivity by the enthusiastic support and funding of president sankara ( in 2006 the secretariat of fepaci moved to south africa but the headquarters of the organization is still in ouagaoudougou ) . between 1977 and 1987 burkina faso housed a regional film school , institut d ' education cinématographique de ouagadougou ( inafec ) , which was instigated by fepaci and funded in part by unesco , but eighty percent of its funding came from the government of burkina faso ( no other african country participated in its funding and few sent students ) .
in the late 1990s , local private production companies began to proliferate and digital production became increasingly prevalent . by 2002 over twenty - five small production companies existed in the country , many pooling their resources and expertise in order to produce . the best known directors from burkina faso are : mamadou djim kola ,
, kollo daniel sanou , paul zoumbara , emmanuel kalifa sanon , pierre s . yameogo ,
burkina also produces popular television series such as bobodjiouf . the internationally known filmmakers such as ouedraogo , kabore , yameogo , and kouyate make also popular television series .
many films shot in burkina faso by local directors have found distribution in francophone europe and several have received assistance from the french ministry of co - operation . however , while these films have won awards in europe and are regularly featured in african studies courses , in africa itself they are little known outside of academic circles .
burkina faso hosts the panafrican film and television festival of ouagadougou ( fespaco ) every two years in ouagadougou , burkina faso ' s capital .
