A kind of Dakar rap musical, or contemporary urban opera, Teranga Blues is a reflection on the social mutations affecting the pride of the Senegalese people. It is surreal, lyrical, carnivalesque . . . and real. It shows how the opening and closing of the border has transformed the lives of the young.
