SUMMARY:DAHOMEY
DESCRIPTION:See the two of the shortlisted finalists for this year’s LUX Audience Awards this season at Scandinavia House! On March 7 we’ll be screening Dahomey\, Mati Diop’s riveting documentary about the 2021 repatriation of royal treasures from the Kingdom of Dahomey to the present-day Republic of Benin. \nIn November 2021\, 26 royal treasures of the Kingdom of Dahomey are about to leave Paris to return to their country of origin\, the present-day Republic of Benin. Along with thousands of others\, these artefacts were plundered by French colonial troops in 1892. But what attitude should the Beninese adopt to their homecoming\, in a country that had to forge ahead in their absence? The debate rages among students at the University of Abomey-Calavi. \n“Open-ended\, fecund with imagination and ideas\, never hectoring or lecturing\, not so much posing questions as asking what questions might be posed: Mati Diop’s film is a marvelous provocation” (Deadline). \nThis event has been organized by the European Parliament in partnership with Scandinavia House.
