In this lively documentary see how a new generation of Senegalese artists are pushing for social, economic and political change through the messages conveyed by their varied range of artistic practises.
Senegal’s capital Dakar booms with life and this energy can be found in the artistic and cultural expressions of the city as we follow the young artists who see themselves as change agents for their generation. Meet the fashion designers, hip hop musicians, graffiti artists, photographers, bloggers, dancers and many other artists and cultural entrepreneurs who stand for creativity, passion, social conscience and a collective, creative fight against economic and political burdens. In the true sense of "l'union fait la force" (unity is strength), this is a vibrant portrait of one of West Africa’s most lively creative arts scenes.
