Timbuktu

Timbuktu: A Quiet Struggle Against Extremism In the ancient city of Timbuktu, a cattle herder named Kidane and his family lead a simple life, seemingly untouched by the jihadists who have taken over the city. However, their peaceful existence is disrupted when Kidane accidentally kills a fisherman, leading to a chain of events that forces him to confront the harsh reality of the occupying forces. As the story unfolds, we see the impact of extremism on the city's residents, who struggle to maintain their cultural identity and way of life amidst oppressive rule. Through the lens of director Abderrahmane Sissako, Timbuktu offers a powerful and poignant portrait of resilience in the face of adversity.
