La Pirogue - Film Review

For those of you interested in great cinema, telling stories of Black people, and are tired the the gnashing of teeth and hand-wringing over Hollyweird's films like "Django" then check out the new Senegalese film "La Pirogue" directed by Moussa Toure. This drama tells the story of 30 Senegalese peasants who make a break for Spain by sea in search of a better life. La Pirogue puts a human face to illegal immigration.
