DAHOMEY<\/strong><\/p>\n

Directed by Mati Diop<\/p>\n

France\/Senegal\/Benin\/Singapore, 2024, 68mins<\/p>\n

About the film:<\/strong><\/a> Winner of the Golden Bear at the 2024 Berlinale, Mati Diop\u2019s dynamic film brings a dazzling sense of imagination to vital issues of self-determination and restitution. Amplifying voices from beyond the walls of international museums, this spellbinding work redefines the spaces of culture and art.<\/p>\n

In 2021, 26 objects from the Kingdom of Dahomey leave Paris and are returned to present-day Benin. How should these art treasures, stolen from ancestors, be received in a country which has reinvented itself in their absence?<\/p>\n
