Les maitres fous

Crazy Teachers
I maestri pazzi

It is the description of a particular ritual performed by the Houka, who are mainly immigrant workers that come to Accra from the regions of Niger to gather for their great annual cerimony. After a public confession, the ritual of being possessed starts. Saliva coming out of the mouth, the trembling of hands and panting are the signs of the coming of the ‘geniuses of strength’, impersonations of emblematic figures of British colonialism: the corporal on watch, the governor, the doctor, the captain’s wife, the general, the steam engine driver, etc. The ritual reaches its peak with the sacrifice of a dog, which is eaten by the possessed. The next day, they all go back to their everyday lives, except for the dog.


Il regista / The Director

regista

Born in Paris in 1917, Jean Rouch died last year in his beloved Africa, where he made most of his ethnographic documentaries. After having graduated in engineering, starting from 1947, he dedicated himself to the study of ethnology and the making of documentaries in the French colonies in Africa, initially under the guidance of Marcel Griaule. Considered from many aspects as one of the forerunners of the Nouvelle Vague, he was a pioneer of documentary technique in continuation of Robert Flaherty’s method. Among his unnumerable appointments, he was Director of the Cnrs of Paris, Secretary General of the Comité du Film Ethnographique and Director of the Cinémathèque Française.
