Sept soirees au marche N'Gellaw-I
Screening indoors for the first time.
A one hour video documenting the project along with live commentary from DJ Amala and questions and answers ended the week of battery-operated soirees.
40+ DVD's of some of the screenings and discussions were distributed in the market.
Sept Soirees was a series of battery-powered "evenings" in the Marche N' Gellaw, a suburban market in Dakar, Senegal. These evenings were conceived in a situation where there is scarce time, space or other resources for communal activity at a certain scale. Also because of the peculiar condition of cinemas in Dakar: there are only two still functioning.
These "micro-cinema" and "micro-radio" events are performed by showing up at a street corner with some equipment, and negotiating the rest.
