Samba Traoré
Movie • 1993 • Drama
ReportSamba (Bakary Sangare) has returned unannounced to his home village, bringing with him a suitcase full of money. Despite his protests that this is money that he earned in the city, the villagers have their doubts. In fact, he held up a gas station and unintentionally killed its attendant, and is in hiding here. Meanwhile, he has married a woman (Mariam Kaba) with a child who left her husband and built a house for her. He is building a bar with his remaining money, but he encounters a situation which makes him believe that he will be exposed to the police, and runs away, leaving a pregnant, very ill wife behind, much to the disgust of the villagers and Samba's own family.

Many animals appear (cows, goats, sheep, a monkey), some are herded quite roughly, but no evidence of harm appears on screen.

Difficult to say. A monkey is bought (as a pet?) for a child, we then see the boy return to his house, where he finds his mother in labour, at which point the boy is instructed to go and find his grandfather to get help. The monkey does not reappear after the boy finds his mother and is not subsequently mentioned.
