Salah, an African toubab?

Directed by Margriet Jansen

Not every African wants to go to Europe! Every African wants to go to Europe is the common public opinion in Europe. The young and energetic will rise to the opportunity of finding a better life in Europe or the US, as if they have nothing to lose. But there are young people who choose differently. People who want all the benefits of a steady and fulfilling professional life, on the condition that they can achieve this at home. People who love their native country and who realize that happiness is not an easy commodity in a foreign land. Salah Salahina Sounfountera, living in Mali, is such a man. He lives in Mali and he has decided to stay.
