horizontal line

[Available March 21 via streaming on MUBI.] When a proud, 55-year-old pool attendant (Youssouf Djaoro), who lives in poverty with his wife (Hadje Fatime N'Goua) in Chad in 2006, working at a fancy hotel run by a Chinese manager (Heling Li) loses his longtime job to his son (Dioucounda Koma), who has a 17-year-old, pregnant, singer girlfriend (Djénéba Koné) from Mali, and is demoted to a gate security guard in Mahamat-Saleh Haroun's riveting, award-winning, well-written, touching, heartbreaking, 92-minute, 2010 film inspired by F. W. Murnau's classic The Last Laugh dominated by great acting and cinematography, he foolishly ends up getting his son drafted into the Chadian army to fight against the rebels in the civil war.
