New Library Highlight: Documentary film: 'Du piment sur les lèvres'

In francophone West Africa, the aspirations of young generations for a better life are translated in new cultural movements. Hip hop has become an important form of expression of young people. Several films have been made to document this new movement. The ASCL library recently acquired the documentary film 'Du piment sur les lèvres', made by the young French filmmaker Laurène Lepeytre. The film follows Cameroonian rapper Gaston Abe, better known as Général Valséro, who has become a leader of his generation. The film is the subject of our latest Library Highlight!
