Soleil Ô (Oh, Sun)

Presented by Cleveland Institute of Art and The Cleveland Institute of Art Cinematheque at Online/Virtual Space

France/Mauritania | 1970 | Med Hondo

In this gripping, groundbreaking, galvanizing classic, an educated but naïve West African immigrant in 1960s Paris encounters everything from hostility and humiliation to rejection and resentment as he seeks to improve his life. “Hondo deploys a dizzying array of narrative and stylistic techniques—animation, docudrama, dream sequences, musical numbers, folklore, slapstick comedy, agitprop—to create a revolutionary landmark of political cinema and a shattering vision of awakening Black consciousness.” –Janus Films. New restoration! Cleveland revival premiere. Subtitles. 102 min.
