Sylvestre Amoussou
1964 (61 год)Amoussou was born 31 December 1964 in Benin. After living in France for twenty years, and experiencing the lack of interesting roles offered to black actors in France, he decided to make his own movies. In Africa Paradis, the politics of immigration is turned on its head: the economic fortunes of Europe and Africa are reversed, and immigrants struggle to gain entrance to Africa from Europe. Amoussou's anti-colonial film The African Storm (2017) received an enthusiastic reception from audiences at the Panafrican Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou and received the festival's Silver Stallion of Yennega prize.
