Toulou Kiki

No more music, no tea, no cigarettes, no bright colors, no laughs. The women have become shadows. The religious fundamentalists are spreading terror in the region. In the dunes, away from the chaos, Kidane enjoys a quiet life. But his peace is short-lived. Kidane must face the law of the new foreign rulers determined to defeat an open and tolerant Islam. Against the humiliations and acts of brutality, Timbuktu tells of the struggle of the people, and the uncertain future of the children. (festival-cannes.fr)
