HiBROW travelled in February 2011 to Africa's leading film festival, Fespaco, which takes place in Ouagadougou, the capital of Burkina Faso in west Africa. One of the many filmmakers HiBROW encountered in this special city was Jean-Pierre Bekolo, director of 'Les Saignantes' and a leading authority on African cinema. Here, Jean-Pierre sits down with HiBROW in one of Ouagadougou's characterful open-air cinemas to talk about film and the continent.
