France/Senegal/Benin, 2024, Mati Diop
Mati Diop’s (Atlantics) politically provocative, hybrid documentary follows the journey of 26 plundered royal treasures from the Kingdom of Dahomey exhibited in Paris, now being returned to present-day Republic of Benin. Partly fabulistic and partly adopting a fly-on-the-wall approach, Diop highlights the debates around appropriation, self-determination and restitution as voiced by contemporary university students. Winner of the Berlinale Golden Bear for Best Film. Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 69 min.
