FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS:
Saturday, Oct. 14th
1:30PM - Kirikou and the Sorceress
Animated feature presentation. This animated film exquisitely recounts the tale of tiny Kirikou, born in an African village on which Karaba the Sorceress has placed a terrible curse. Kiirikou sets out on a quest to free his village of the curse and find out the secret of why Karaba is so wicked. Kirikou depicts a precocious newborn infant who battles ignorance, and so-called evil, with endearing perseverance. This film speaks to the child within us all who yearns to express and defend the best in others and in ourselves. Kirikou’s stunning visuals are accented by a traditional music soundtrack by African music giant Youssou N’Dour of Senegal. (1hr 10 min). Tickets: $5 Adult, Children Free
