About Paris selon Moussa
Farmer Moussa Sidibé is sent to France by his village in Guinea to buy a new water pump to irrigate the fields of their cooperative. But when he arrives in Paris, half of the money he was given is stolen. He then finds himself in totally unexpected situations, notably among the African undocumented immigrants who occupy a church.
Directed by Cheik Doukouré, Paris selon Moussa leans on a strong ensemble — Élisabeth Vitali, Cheik Doukouré, Vincent McDoom — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2003.
