Mémoire entre deux rivesMemory Between Two Shores
« Memory between Two Shores » tells the story of the French colonisation of the Lobi area . No village or family in this region of South-western Burkina Faso will ever forget. Juxtaposed with the written records of the administrators, the oral tradition calls up a century of history, from the arrival of the first Europeans to the present day. The vitality of the spoken word also bears witness to the legacy of this painful past, at the individual, social and religious level. From the past to the present, from the spoken word to the writings of the colonial administrators, «Memory between two Shores» is as much Lobi’s quest for identity as a reflection upon «France the Great Civiliser».
