About Madame Brouette
Mati, a divorced mother of a young daughter, makes a living selling bric-a-bric from a wheelbarrow and dreams of opening a snack bar. But she falls for the charms of Naago, a cop, and it's only when the Tajaboom festival (at which women and men switch roles) arrives that her opportunity for escape emerges.
Directed by Moussa Sène Absa, Madame Brouette leans on a strong ensemble — Rokhaya Niang, Aboubacar Sadikh Ba, Kadiatou Sy — 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 drama titles of 2002.
