User Reviews

a beautiful and sensitive world..

Hello,

I read all your messages and I would like to tell you that Ecoute le temps of Alanté Kavaïté is a really beautiful, sensitive and interesting movie. I saw it two times at the cinema in Paris and it was each time very good. I'm really surprised about what it is written...something about a microphone visible in almost every shot...I assure you, at the cinema, it was a perfect image with a cinema scope version and without any microphone in the shot! if what it is written it's true, for sure the DVD version of this movie is a bad one.... I think that this new film director is talented and I support her work.
