Summary |
Given France's large colonial influence in Africa, Pria samples the African diaspora in Paris, asking why they are more French than African and why France is perceived to have been a "better coloniser" than the rest. Pria talks to Malian singer Rokia Traore, Cameroonian author Calixte Beyala; Euro MP Fode Sylla; student Romuald Nkongo; writer and art critic Simon Njami and former French Prime Minister Michel Rocard. (An SBS-TV production, in English and French, English subtitles) |
