KANRAXËL:
The Confluence of Agnack
(2014)

Chouette Films
female producer & researchers [5/6] | green film

Agnack (Senegal) is a place where both rivers and people converge in the most stunning of ways – a place where it is considered perfectly normal to speak a minimum of six languages. 


For the first time in history the people of Agnack allowed cameras to film as they prepare for an unforgettable event and capture the mystery surrounding their rituals. Their culture and languages are more threatened now than at any point in its long history due to abrupt changes brought by colonisation, conflict, globalisation and migration. It is the first ever documetary film with a Baïnouk narration uniquely capturing the beauty of the endangered language.

Paddle Productions Inc.
female connecting producer [1/6]
