Bintou

Directed by Simone Gaul

Far from the catwalks of the European fashion world, BINTOU runs a successful label in Burkina Faso.

Synopsis

BINTOU bicycles from door to door, selling her clothes mostly to white expats who don't haggle over prices. She films her latest creations with a small camera, chats at the Internet café, and reenacts TV casting shows with her friends. The 24-year-old has high ambitions, but her 7-year-old daughter wants to live with her again. Will BINTOU succeed in balancing a fashion label, private life and raising children?
