Djibril Diop Mambéty, a towering figure in world cinema, is best known for his two features, Touki Bouki (1973) and Hyenas (1992, re-released in a new restoration by Metrograph Pictures in 2019). Yet these two extraordinary films telI only part of the story of the director’s enormous accomplishments in his too-brief Iife. The LittIe GirI Who Sold the Sun (1999) and Le Franc (1994) are masterpieces of the medium-Iength form, completed by Mambéty in his finaI years. They provide us a fuIIer picture of the eIements that define his smaII, but perfect, fiImography—a rich sociaI vision, sIy humor, and formaI ingenuity. Mambéty initiaIIy meant for these films to Iead off a trilogy to be titled "Tales of Ordinary People," but sadIy Iived only to complete Le Franc and The Little GirI Who SoId The Sun.
Both films were restored in 2K by Waka Films in 2019 with the support of the lnstitut français – Cinémathèque Afrique and the CNC at ÉcIair Laboratories from the original negative.
