#95 Black Girl:
In his radical debut feature, Ousmane Sembène reveals the agony of the postcolonial experience through the story of a Senegalese migrant abused by her French employers. Eager to find a better life abroad, a Senegalese woman becomes a governess to a family in southern France where she suffers from discrimination and marginalization. (1966)
