LEGENDS OF MADAGASCAR
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 8 @ 8:30PM - QUAD
LEGENDS OF MADAGASCAR W/ Q&A
Legends of Madagascar takes on numerous issues in contemporary Madagascar: racial tensions between the native population and Indian immigrants, military corruption, and the challenge to preserve indigenous traditions amidst economic growth. A young man studying in the capital must return home to his village when he learns (via radio announcement) that his father is deathly ill. The hero and his Rastafarian friend Bob scrounge up the money to buy a bus ticket home. They fail to raise enough, but fortunately their gangster friend Dylan needs to skip town and offers them a ride. Signs of political strife are everywhere, as are military checkpoints. Yet they encounter a spirit of camaraderie everywhere they go. Directed by Haminiaina Ratovoarivony, 2012, 93 min, Madagascar, Drama/Comedy, Malagasy/English subt.
