As their
father disappears into the West African desert, his two
sons are left to experience loss, love and exile - but there
is humour here too, and rich humanity, not least in the
director's heart-warming sensitivity to the tenderness of
childhood. Add the vibrancy of African colour, fine accoustic
guitar soundtrack, and you relish a rare cinematic treat.
