To 6 Feb Two brothers’ lives are upended when their father leaves home and they don’t know why. Determined to find him, they search the streets of the city and all his usual places. Growing despondent, they take to aimless wandering by day and seek refuge in cinemas by night. Until one day they think they spot him onscreen… This optimistic and life-affirming film is enriched with a score provided by internationally acclaimed Malian musician Ali Farka Toure.
