Synopsis
Yallah, Yallah, Beenah: As a film and audio junkie who’s home has been converted to a dedicated shrine to cinema revels in the tales of his equipment to a documentary film crew, we find ourselves transported through a wormhole where a gang of pre-teen kids are sent on a psychedelic mission to save humanity all while under the influence of a spell put forth by a coven of witches

Followed by
The Cemetery of Cinema: Au cimetière de la pellicule (The Cemetery of Cinema) traces the director’s journey through the defunct cinemas and archives of Guinea to France in search of the 1953 lost film Mouramani (dir. Mamadou Touré), likely the first film made by a Guinean and one of the first films from sub-Saharan Africa.
