Cabo Negro

"On Friday, October 18, a group of students from the French section participated in the Chicago premiere of Cabo negro, a film selected by the Chicago International Film Festival and shown at the Gene Siskel Film Center. The film was followed by a Q&A with director Abdellah Taïa. Taïa is an award-winning novelist and this is his second feature film. The students were able to converse with him about his work and learn about the sources of the film as well as the Maroccan filmmaker's intentions in this particular work."
