I had the chance to meet some members of the theater company BlonBa, Mali, visiting Paris for a few performances, on October 28 at Passy, where they were Albarino invited to speak their piece, Truth Soldier . I was much inspired by purchasing the DVD Bougouniéré invited to dinner (the second, South-North, the neighborhood Koteba , had been kindly offered). I could imagine it would be applauded at home.
Indeed, whether I am called to my household chores, or I do not have enough quiet to avoid losing sight of the past few weeks I've just started playing the video without able to finish it. My son, by cons, having been captured in the early scenes, went up to the end. This has become his favorite DVD. He has watched many times already. He laughs so much that he managed to get the family together around Bougouniéré and his family. At 9, he probably did not understand the social and political impact of the piece, but plot, he understood. The names of birds Bougouniéré quenches her husband have enough to trigger laughter, certainly, but not only. The actors play their roles admirably, and the first Bougouniéré. Who is Bougouniéré and why she invites to dinner?

We are in Mali, one of those families who struggle daily against formidable enemies, including poverty, unemployment. We must try to cope. Bougouniéré therefore the idea of starting an NGO, with objectives that can attract the benevolence of European investors: "literacy for rural girls," fight against "FGM", female genital mutilation and so on. She managed to attract his traps Mr "Big Fish", a representative of the World Bank that it hopes to obtain grants. For this, she prepared a dinner, in order to discover the white boss "Mali deep. But as they are penniless (Djeliba, her husband, a man yet full of skills, is unemployed), how to provide a meal worthy of the name? The whole family is contributing to supply what to do honor to the Big Fish. All his family (actually the only members of the NGO until it develops), her husband, their son, whether the two who live with them or who is in France (got there lower the price of enormous sacrifices.
few actors of the company BlonBa, including Michel Sangare (middle) plays the role of Djeliba, Bougouniéré husband.
The irony is permanent and spares no one: whether African states, where people are struggling under the weight of despair, NGOs outside the dashing but does have the sole reason for the desire to "catch subsidies that go ", international agencies, not least in the business rather than in real partnership ... Brief each takes on his behalf because everyone thinks only of his interests. The issue of immigration is also addressed in its brutal reality. But those who suffer the most are always the weakest.
