indianajosh:Timbuktu | Abderrahmane Sissako, 2014This film was shot in the old historic caravan town of Oualata, on the border between Mauritania and Mali, where I spent some time last year speaking Hassaniya with the various tribes who’d gathered from hundreds of miles for a week-long festival celebrating the cultural heritage of life in the region. Camel races, poetry recitations, drumming and dancing, decorative arts, and religious ceremonies (including old folklore traditions in addition to Islam) filled the days and nights.It remains one of the most memorable experiences I’ve had in all my travels. See some photos from my time in Oualata here. -- source link
