[…] Secondo Mambéty, un regista doveva essere per la società come un griot, cioè colui che custodisce e tramanda la memoria delle genealogie, dei miti e della tradizione orale […] Mambéty credeva che gli africani dovessero "reinventare" il cinema, ed è esattamente ciò che lui ha fatto."Con queste parole, Martin Scorsese introduce un fondamentale libro di critica sull'opera di Djibril Diop Mambéty (1945-1998), considerato insieme a Ousmane Sembène uno dei padri del cinema senegalese e africano. Il volume, che porta lo stesso titolo di questo episodio, è curato da Cinzia Quadrati e Simona Cella, amica carissima di questo podcast che ci guida attraverso aneddoti inediti sulla vita e l'opera di Mambéty, rivelando l'innovazione e lo spirito rivoluzionario e contemporaneo che caratterizzano il cinema del visionario regista senegalese.Con Federico Allocca e Simone CortiRiprese Gianlorenzo Bernabò Di NegroMusica DEMONA alias Andrea Evangelista e Delio GallmannAnimazione sigla Ida CortiLogo design Chiara QuagliarellaPost-produzione audio Matteo FusiCon il sostegno di Associazione La Terza Via, GYBE Studio e SidereusUn grazie a Raffaele Allocca, Elisabetta Marrocco, Riccardo Romano, Andrea Sestu

Filmada con un mínimo presupuesto y en condiciones que dejan al cine neorrealista en calidad de hijo del capital, le extraordinaria Touki Bouki es uno de los hijos más insospechados de la crisis cinematográfica post '68: aunque es directo producto del triunfo progresista que provocó el fin de las colonias europeas en África, hace evidente su desilusión por las consecuencias inmediatas del proceso de independencia. Es ahí que uno consigue entender la conducta de Mory y Anta, una pareja de antisociales que le debe mucho a los protagonistas de Sin Aliento y Pierrot el loco, y que —en principio, al menos— están dispuestos a cualquier cosa con tal de hacerse de dinero y fugarse a un París. El suyo, más que impulso migrante es directamente una fuga. De esas calles, de esos barrios, de ese Dakar que para el director Djibril Diop Mambéty, lo representa todo. De eso y más se habla en este podcast.

418. We talk to Nathan Rabalais about his new book, Folklore Figures of French and Creole Louisiana. Nathan J. Rabalais examines the impact of Louisiana’s remarkably diverse cultural and ethnic groups on folklore characters and motifs during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Establishing connections between Louisiana and France, West Africa, Canada, and the Antilles, Rabalais explores how folk characters, motifs, and morals adapted to their new contexts in Louisiana. In particular, he examines the ways in which collective traumas experienced by Louisiana’s major ethnic groups — slavery, the grand dérangement, linguistic discrimination — resulted in fundamental changes in these folktales in relation to their European and African counterparts. Rabalais points to the development of an altered moral economy in Cajun and Creole folktales. Conventional heroic qualities, such as physical strength, are subverted in Louisiana folklore in favor of wit and cunning. Analyses of Black Creole animal tales like those of Bouki et Lapin and Tortie demonstrate the trickster hero’s ability to overcome both literal and symbolic entrapment through cleverness.

Chef Gregory Gourdet joins us to discuss his highly anticipated first cookbook, Everyone’s Table: Global Recipes for Modern Health, which focuses on healthy recipes inspired by his Haitian-American upbringing in NYC and his French culinary training. Event: Gregory Gourdet has a virtual event with Books Are Magic in conversation with Gail Simmons tonight at 7. SLOW-COOKED SALMON WITH TI MALICE SAUCE Serves 6 Slow-cooked salmon was my initiation to the perfection-through-simplicity ethos at the famed Jean-Georges, where I had my first job in a professional kitchen. Today, I still cook salmon this way, and you won’t believe how easy it is to turn the ubiquitous, frequently overcooked fish into a tender treat. Something this rich needs acidity to shine, so I look to sos ti malice, named for a mischievous character from Haitian folklore. The story goes: Ti-Malice was tired of his friend Bouki coming over for lunch, overstaying his wel- come, and eating all his food, so the trickster made a sauce so fiery that it would surely make Bouki run screaming from his house. And Bouki did indeed run into the street—shouting about how much he loved Ti-Malice’s sauce. One part of the story is definitely true. The Haitian condiment, a pickle that doubles as a sauce, is that good. Mine has plenty of fruity heat from Scotch bonnet or habanero chiles, the zip of citrus and vinegar, and a little crunch from red pearl onions. Peeling and separating the onions into tiny petals takes time, but the result is gorgeous. But sure, shallots cut into 1/4-inch half-moons work great, too. For the Ti Malice Sauce 3 cups red pearl onions 11/2 tablespoons kosher salt 3 limes 1 large Scotch bonnet or habanero chile, very finely chopped 6 tablespoons white vinegar 6 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves For the Salmon One 2-pound salmon fillet 2 teaspoons kosher salt 3 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil MAKE THE TI MALICE SAUCE Soak the pearl onions in a small bowl of warm water for 20 minutes to help loosen their skins. Take a few pearl onions at a time out of the water, then trim the tips and bottom nubs and use a small paring knife to peel off the skins. When you’ve peeled them all, halve them lengthwise. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the onions and salt, toss well, and let them sit for 15 minutes to soften. Once they’ve softened, pull the pearl onion layers apart. Use a Microplane to grate the zest of the 3 limes into the bowl, then halve enough limes (1 or 2 juicy ones should do it) to squeeze in 3 tablespoons of juice. Reserve the remaining limes for another purpose. Stir in the chile and vinegar. Let everything sit for about 15 minutes more. Transfer the mixture to a small pot, add the oil and thyme, and set it over medium heat. Let it heat up (you’re not looking for a sizzle), stirring occasionally, until the onions are translucent and lose their harsh raw flavor but still have a slight crunch, 7 to 8 minutes. The sauce keeps in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 weeks. Before serving, very gently reheat it (in a small pan or in a bowl set near a hot oven) until it’s a little warmer than room temperature. COOK THE SALMON AND SERVE Preheat the oven to 300°F. Evenly season the salmon all over with the salt. Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil in a shallow baking dish and rub to coat the surface. Put the salmon in the dish (skin-side down, if your salmon has skin) and drizzle on the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil so it completely covers the top and sides of the salmon. Bake just until the salmon goes from bright pink to light orange and you see the tiniest white beads on the surface of the fish at the thickest part (the center will register 120°F on a thermometer), 20 to 25 minutes. Transfer to a platter, spoon the sauce over the salmon, and serve.
This week we discuss two films which were screened at the Cannes Film Festival in 1973. The first is Touki Bouki (1973), a Senegalese drama directed by Djibril Diop Mambéty. The film was restored in 2008 thanks to Martin Scorsese and the World Cinema Foundation. The second is Scarecrow (1973), starring Al Pacino and Gene Hackman. The film, although a box office bomb, shared the Grand Prix at Cannes.

Classic - Touki Bouki by The Film Stage Show
https://www.bittermedicineblogs.com – On today’s show we have a discussion with filmmaker Gunnar Dessources, concerning the process of making a film, telling Black-centric stories, and what it was like filming his directorial film debut “The Raging Elephant”. The Raging Elephant Synopsis: Jean Negus Peralte and Nehunda Winnie Kandake are a typical African-American, loving couple, who live in and love NYC. They enjoy every facet of NYC without, however, really paying attentions to the ugly side of Brooklyn. That all changes one day at a house party they attend; when neighbors called 911 due to loud hip-hop music. Two rogue police officers enter the home and immediately became confrontational with the partygoers. The officers aggressively manhandle a young lady, and Nehunda tries to defuse the situation, only to be brutally accosted herself. When her lover, Jean, tries to intervene, he was assaulted and arrested. Ultimately, the corrupt judicial system allows Jean’s abusers to go free and now they want revenge. For the gross injustice, Jean wants revenge too. By any means necessary, Jean Negus will get his vengeance!! About the Director: “The Raging Elephant” is the directorial debut of Gunnar Dessources. Gunnar hails from Port-au Prince, Haiti. He came to the U.S. in 1991, where he was raised in Brooklyn, New York. He attended Midwood High school and later double-majored in Psychology and Film Studies at Brooklyn College, earning a degree in 2003. Ten years later, in 2013, Gunnar returned to college, earning a Film Production degree. Currently, Gunnar is enrolled in an M.F.A program at Saint Francis College. Mr. Dessources aims to produce culturally relevant literature and films. As a Caribbean native, hailing from the island of Haiti, and now living in the diaspora within the U.S., Gunnar noticed that his culture is noticeably absent in the educational curriculum and cinematic sector. As a firm believer an Sankofa, a West African Adinkra symbol represented by a bird with its head turned backwards taking an egg off its own back; meant to symbolize retrieving what was taken from us or what you has been lost and to bring it back and preserve it, Gunnar wants to resurrect the love stories of Ogoun and Yemaya; the war between Set and Ausar of Kemet; the cunning ways Of Koikou; Anansi the spider; the adventures of the mischievous Ti Malice and Bouki in the Haitian folklore; and the riddles and the proverbs of old. Gunnar wants to bring forth and amalgamate these things into our present daily lives, in order to secure and protect the future. Listen to learn more.
