The eighty-year old Yandé Codou Sène is one of the last leading singers of polyphonic serere poetry. This documentary gives an intimate glance on a true diva who sang through Senegalese history accompanied by the mythical “president–poet” Léopold Sédar Senghor. Here is a sweet and bitter story about greatness, glory and… the flight time.
