00:00Welcome to Mediane TV, we are now heading to Burkina Faso for the closing of the 29th Pan-African Festival of Cinema and Television in Ouagadougou, FESPACO.
00:19It is the director of Burkina Faso, Dany Kouyate, who won the Golden Talents Award for his feature film, Katanga, the Dance of the Scorpions.
00:29The 63-year-old director and producer received his trophy from the head of the agency in power in Burkina Faso, Captain Ibrahim Traoré, under the acclamation of many festivalgoers at the Sports Palace in Ouagadougou.
00:42The film, an adaptation of the tragedy of Macbeth by William Shakespeare, recounts the story of a village caught in the meanders and vicissitudes of the power of a tyrant.
00:53The son of the famous man of Burkina Faso, Sotigui Kouyate, the screenwriter and producer-primer, was already illustrated during the FESPACO 2001 by winning the special jury award with Sia or the Dream of the Python.
01:07Dany Kouyate also dedicated his trophy to the valiant people of Burkina Faso and to all those who died on the battlefield to defend the country, which has faced more and more murderous violence for a decade.
01:25This is the first time since 1997 and Boudiam of Gaston-Caboré that Burkina Faso has won the supreme award of the African Film Festival.
01:37I invite you to listen to Dany Kouyate, the golden talents, and Martin Zango, the spokesman for the jury of this 29th edition.
01:45It is a tribute to my father, it is a tribute to all the creators of Burkina Faso, to all those who have led us forward, we have a thought for them, to all those who have traced the path that we are trying to follow humbly, well, we are proud of them today.
01:58It is the proof that we must persevere, that when we persist, we get there. It's great, it's more than an honor, it's great for me. I am very proud to be the third Burkinabé to win the talent of Yenenga. It is a great pride.
02:13We worked in an atmosphere that was not easy. It was not easy because there were a lot of quality works. And when there are a lot of quality works, the choice becomes difficult.
02:26It was therefore necessary to argue, it was necessary to plead, it was necessary to defend quality particles. And it is at this price that we finally decided that it is the film Katanga, the dance of the scorpions by Dany Kouyate, which was going to win the Golden Talents of this year.
02:48A decision that makes us proud because the talent has left our country for 28 years and it is with happiness that we will come back to comfort our people who suffer from the suffering of terrorism, to comfort our cultural actors who have been working in difficult conditions since the advent of this terrorism and to show the world that our people are a resilient people.
03:16And direction Casablanca now and the inauguration of the Carl Fick Villa, which has become the Casablanca Museum of Memory. Placed under the wing of the National Museums Foundation, this building from the beginning of the 20th century becomes the Casablanca Museum of Memory, with the ambition to eventually become a real place of culture for the Casablancas.
03:39Built in 1911 and 1913 by the German merchant whose name it bears, it is one of the first buildings to rise to the heights of Mersoltan, a bourgeois house. It became a detention center during the First World War, then an orphanage before being annexed to the Athenian high school and eventually fell into oblivion.
03:57It bears witness to the neomorous trend of the beginning of the 20th century. Its European style integrates elements of Moroccan craftsmanship. For its first opening to the general public, the villa reveals through an immersive course, set by Isabelle Timsit, a story of Casablanca, both documented and sensitive.
04:15It is a timeless journey from prehistory to the modern days of the Casablanca school, through the period of architectural experimentation experienced by the city under the protectorate or by the brutal creations of the duo of architects Teufel Raoui and Mazière in post-independence Morocco.
04:35The great challenge for the scenographer was to give a coherence to a plural memory, between architectural vestiges, testimonials of Casablanca, objects and archives obtained from Casamémoire, from the ENA, from Banque de Marribe and Bari de Marribe, or from the archives of Morocco.
04:51The diversity of proposals, enriched with audiovisual interactive devices, are in the image of Casablanca and allow a vivid visit, both intellectual and sensory.
05:03The villa, barefoot, in order to reveal the ingenuity of its architecture, becomes a palimpsest, where its own story, as glorious as tragic, will be written.
05:15I invite you to listen to Mehdi Kotbil, President of the National Museums Foundation.
05:22Casablanca, which is a museum full of history, the house, the villa, is a historical villa, it is a villa where something happened.
05:31And at the same time, what is very interesting to know is that today, thanks to the impulse of His Majesty the King, we have this exceptional, extraordinary chance to see museums and culture everywhere.
05:46And you know, I keep repeating it, all the Moroccans I meet on the street tell me, please, tell His Majesty our gratitude and thank him for creating the museums here in Morocco,
06:01and for giving us the opportunity to preserve and preserve and know our heritage and our culture.
06:08So you see, today these museums contribute to the preservation of our history.
06:14It is very, very important.
06:16And music to finish.
06:18And the sufi arrangement together with the Sultan of Oman, young singers in traditional tunics and graceful gestures,
06:28whose ritual arm movements imitate, with an amazing grace, the scents of the waves and the fishermen of pearls.
06:35Let's listen to this excerpt.
07:15Thank you, dear viewers, for your loyalty.
