Mortars, marabouts, and colonialist briefcases, oh my! Shaun Duke and Brandon O’Brien take At the Movies in a truly new direction as they explore Ousmane Sembène’s Xala! Together, Shaun and Brandon explore the history of one of the earliest and significant works of African SF/F cinema, from its themes of family, pride, and greed to its exploration of French colonialism in Senegal to the film’s treatment of the fantastic!
