Mariam Kaba
Oyuncu · d. 1961 · Beyla, Guinea
Mariam Kaba (born 9 August 1961) is a French-Guinean actress. Kaba was born in Kankan, Guinea, the daughter of Mohamed Ba Kaba, a diplomat and the author of several books on Islam. She moved to France in the early 1980s. After receiving her baccalaureate, Kaba enrolled at École des nouveaux métiers de la communication largely at the behest of her father. She only attended the school for a year and spent the money her father sent her on acting lessons, studying under Isabelle Sadoyan. Kaba's first stage role was as the wife of Toussaint Louverture, alongside Benjamin Jules-Rosette, director of the Théâtre noir in Paris. Soon thereafter, she landed a role in the TV series Marc and Sophie. In 1989, Kaba made her film debut in Périgord noir, directed by Nicolas Ribowski. She played Maina, a young woman who came to work in the Périgord region. In 1992, she starred in her first African film, Blanc d'ébène. A World War II epic directed by Cheik Doukouré, she played a nurse engaged to the teacher Lancéi Kanté. Later in the year, Kaba appeared in Idrissa Ouedraogo's Samba Traoré. She collaborated with Doukouré again in 1994, in Le Ballon d'or. Her son was born in 1999. In 2000, Kaba played Pauline Lumumba, wife of the politician Patrice Lumumba, in Raoul Peck's Lumumba. Kaba had known his son, Roland, in her youth but did not want to meet Pauline in advance of the role. She fought for the role because she was interested in the history. Kaba has appeared in more than 15 French TV shows and TV films, such as Navarro, Villa mon rêve, l'Avocate, Quatre cent suspects and Justice de femmes. Her most controversial performance was in the 2002 TV films Fatou la Malienne and Fatou l'Espoir, directed by Daniel Vigne. Kaba played the mother of Fatou, forcing her into an unwilling marriage. It sparked outcry in Mali and led to her being heckled on the street. Kaba explains that she read the script before meeting the real Fatou, and would never allow her husband to do a similar thing to her daughter.

Film7.8MaceraDramFilm, Dakar'dan Avrupa'ya giden iki gencin hikayesini merkezine alıyor. Matteo Garrone'a Venedik Film Festivali'nde 'En İyi Yönetmen' dahil toplam 12 ödül kazandıran "Kaptan Benim!" dünyayı gezip rap yıldızı olma hayali kuran iki genç erkeğin Senegal'den Avrupa'ya gitme çabalarını konu alıyor. Giriştikleri bu zorlu yolculuk, çağdaş bir Odisseia gibi, çöldeki zorlu aşamadan Libya'daki işkence dolu ceza kamplarına ve ardından uçsuz bucaksız denizlere kadar uzanıyor. Venedik'teki ödül töreninde, Matteo Garrone mikrofonu hikayenin ilham kaynağı olan aktivist Kouassi Pli Adama Mamadou'ya teslim etti; Mamadou ise ödülü "ulaşamayanlara" adadı. İtalya'nın Oscar adayı olan bu film, göçmenlerin yaşadığı zorlukları onların gözünden aktarmak adına bu çileyi yaşamış bireylerle görüşülerek yazıldı ve olaylar, varış noktasından ziyade yol boyunca başlarına gelenleri onların bakış açısıyla izleyiciye yansıtmayı amaçlıyor.

Film6.8DramTarihThe true story of the rise to power and brutal assassination of the formerly vilified and later redeemed leader of the independent Congo, Patrice Lumumba. Using newly discovered historical evidence, Haitian-born and later Congo-raised writer and director Raoul Peck renders an emotional and tautly woven account of the mail clerk and beer salesman with a flair for oratory and an uncompromising belief in the capacity of his homeland to build a prosperous nation independent of its former Belgian overlords. Lumumba emerges here as the heroic sacrificial lamb dubiously portrayed by the international media and led to slaughter by commercial and political interests in Belgium, the United States, the international community, and Lumumba's own administration; a true story of political intrigue and murder where political entities, captains of commerce, and the military dovetail in their quest for economic and political hegemony.

Soon after, the Dialo family, friendly Africans, moved into the adjoining house. At first, the two families get along perfectly. The only problem was that the Dialos organized many parties, which often ended late at night. The patience and understanding of the Marchands only delay the inevitable conflict.
