What is a griot? Historically, they are wandering African musicians considered to be a repository of the oral tradition. This film focuses on a master drummer, Adame Drama of Burkina Faso, a descendant of a long line of griots. He is a contemporary griot whose mission in life is to preserve his heritage and pass it on to the next generation. Resisting the lure of monetary rewards of an artistic career in Europe, Adame has elected to remain in his country and for forty years has pursued his music there.

"Afternoon shift in Marseilles coupled with the stormy mistral. I love Bauhaus and filmed a big complex by Le Corbusier 'Unité d'habitation' in which, besides apartments, there were originally shops, a hotel, a kindergarten and everything necessary. What's interesting for me, however, is above all to try to get a fragmentary, cinematic feel of the three-dimensional concrete sculpture, thereby experiencing the natural power of the mistral. An intense blue, recurring stage-like views that open up a second level of the image, and a captivating depth of field linger in the memory of the viewer.” —Milena Gierke
