Film Screening: Timbuku - from 29.05.15
The tremendous Oscar-nominated drama Timbuktu opens in UK cinemas and on demand on 29 May 2015.
Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film at the 87th Academy Awards and screened in competition for the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival 2014, Timbuktu is based on the forceful takeover of Mali in 2012. It tells the story of Kidane and his family, who fall foul of invading Jihadist militants who try to control their faith and threaten their way of life. At once searing and poetic, it is an extraordinary fable about the dangers of religious extremism that also conveys the rich cultural heritage of the Malian people.
Directed By: Abderrahmane Sissako
Starring: Ibrahim Ahmed aka Pino, Toulou Kiki, Abel Jafri, Fatoumata Diawara, Hichem Yacoubi, Kettly Noël, Mehdi AG Mohamed, Layla Walet Mohamed, Adel Mahmoud Cherif, Salem Dendou
