instagram.com@archiveafrica * Senegal 🇸🇳* Stills from the film Tauw by Ousmane Sembène/1970. Tauw is one of Sembène’s early short works. It tells the story of two brothers in the generation after independence. Tauw, an unemployed 20-year-old, must deal with the consequences of the shifting morality and stifled job market in urban Senegal, while 11-year old Ouman must confront the contradictions of his religious instruction. Naturalistic in its presentation, Tauw dramatizes how unprepared both are to face the realities presented by a changing society. Although the story is a simple one, it is forcefully drawn and still poignant.
