Souleymane’s Story / L’histoire de Souleymane - Tuesday, April 7, 2025:
Souleymane is a Guinean immigrant in Paris whose every waking second is spent fighting against the clock, racing through the streets of Paris to make his quota for food deliveries on his bicycle in time to secure a bed at the shelter each night. An asylum seeker, he has two days to prepare his story for a make-or-break interview to secure legal residency. First-time actor Abou Sangaré won the Un Certain Regard prize for Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival and the Best Male Revelation prize at the French César Awards.
