Screening of the film by Yoann de Montgrand and François Tchernia, France 2021, 52 min.
In conjunction with the exhibition "Racism and anti-Semitism in pictures - Discrimination, prejudice and stereotypes".
"Bamboula": this word was chosen in the 1980s for a chocolate cookie that was well known to children at the time.
In 1994, he sponsored an Ivorian village set up in the Port-Saint-Père zoological park, south of Nantes, where children and adults were kept in a zoo to perform their folklore for visitors.
This is the forgotten affair of the "Bamboula village", or how, in 1994, what amounted to the last human zoo in France made headlines. This film takes a look back at what happened, in the company of those who lived through it, and questions our representations and our history.
