略歴

Ancienne élève de l’École Mudra-Afrique de Maurice Béjart à Dakar, Irène Tassembédo fait partie des plus grandes figures de la chorégraphie moderne de l’Afrique contemporaine. Installée en Europe depuis le début des années 1980, elle développe un travail chorégraphique original, alliant danse contemporaine et danse africaine, qui s’inscrit résolument dans le temps présent, tout en réinventant le langage de la danse. Son ouverture vers l’ensemble des techniques de la danse et vers les autres disciplines des arts vivants lui ont ouvert une carrière multidisciplinaire de chorégraphe et d’enseignante réputée de danse en Europe et à travers le monde, mais aussi en tant que comédienne de talent au théâtre, au cinéma et à la télévision. Elle a créé en 1988 la Compagnie Ébène, avec laquelle elle a tourné dans de nombreux pays pour y présenter son travail original et novateur de chorégraphe. En 2000, elle reçoit le prix SACD de la chorégraphie en France. Après 30 ans d’une carrière internationale, Irène Tassembédo est revenue s’installer en 2007 au Burkina Faso, son pays d’origine, riche d’une expérience professionnelle qu’elle souhaite transmettre aux danseurs, chorégraphes et autres artistes du continent africain. Tout en continuant un travail de création chorégraphique puissant et inspiré avec sa compagnie, rebaptisée Compagnie Irène Tassembédo, elle travaille aujourd’hui au développement de projets culturels novateurs et structurants dans son pays et à travers le continent, tel que l’École de Danse internationale Irène Tassembédo (EDIT), créée en octobre 2009 à Ouagadougou, pour développer une formation professionnelle permanente de haut niveau en danse sur le continent africain et la création d’un diplôme de danse africain de niveau international.

Gladys Boigny
A provocative, seemingly absurd patchwork movie which sends a worthwhile message about hope against all odds, love, children and human understanding. Schoolgirl Victorine has an insane mother and an alcoholic father who can never find his way home in their maze of slum apartment blocks. Aggressive, sexually threatening boys of all ages are everywhere, and while the teacher eventually relents to a gang of adolescent rapists, Victorine gives herself to a rowdy gang of older layabouts, eventually winning the heart of burglar Paul.
Samba Traoré
Binta
Samba (Bakary Sangare) has returned unannounced to his home village, bringing with him a suitcase full of money. Despite his protests that this is money that he earned in the city, the villagers have their doubts. In fact, he held up a gas station and unintentionally killed its attendant, and is in hiding here. Meanwhile, he has married a woman (Mariam Kaba) with a child who left her husband and built a house for her. He is building a bar with his remaining money, but he encounters a situation which makes him believe that he will be exposed to the police, and runs away, leaving a pregnant, very ill wife behind, much to the disgust of the villagers and Samba's own family.
