A landmark in African cinema, Souleymane Cissé’s film is set in the Malian empire of the 13th century and depicts the quest of a young son across the West African landscape to confront his father, a tyrannical magician.

On a cloudy day in a small-town carnival, an unattended three-year-old boy with a small note in his hand cries inconsolably.
