The Night of Truth / La Nuit de la vérité Series: The 14th New York African Film Festival [Apr. 4 - 12 2007] Director: Fanta Régina Nacro, Country: Burkina Faso, Release: 2004, Runtime: 100, Language: Dioula, French, and Moore Two fictional warring tribes, the Bonandés and the Nayaks, have formed a fragile truce. A decade of brutality and bloodshed has left them surrounded by the markers of violence: hastily dug graveyards, stray corpses and vividly bloody graffiti. So when the Nayak president and the Bonandé rebel leader plan a feast to cement the reconciliation, the atmosphere of fear and mistrust is palpable. The Night of Truth is a raw fable that powerfully represents the tragedy of countless civil conflicts plaguing contemporary Africa. screening with Summit Meeting Archival Newsreel, Uganda, 1967; 2m
