The Decapitation by Ousmane Sembene of the French Commission for Classification of Cinematography (CCC)

Fiction, 90 minutes (in post-production)

1989, the Commission for Classification of Cinematography organizes a networking event for Ousmane Sembene’s latest film Camp de Thiaroye. What starts with the best of intentions culminates in a court case of vital importance. An absurd ahistorical treatment of the censorship of a milestone in African cinema, where uncomfortable truths are confronted and heads roll.
