Samba Traoré

Elinor Bunin Munroe Film Center
Friday, August 28, 2026
Made in the wake of his Cannes Grand Prix winner Tilaï, the great Burkinabé writer-director Idrissa Ouédraogo’s fifth feature begins with a botched service-station robbery and follows its lone survivor home, where a suitcase of stolen cash begins to look, at least from a distance, like providence. Ouédraogo deploys the film’s thriller shape to examine what guilt does to a man once his material life begins to flourish, and how a community comes to share, profit from, and finally question the lie on which that prosperity rests.
