Les Talibets

Synopsis



They are generally found in West Africa, the talibés are young students of Islam. From an early age (around 5-6 years old), the student studies the Koran and finishes his or her apprenticeship in adolescence. The traditional education of the talibés is provided by a Koranic or marabout master in a "Daara" (a kind of school); this one takes care of religious instruction which is accompanied by an initiatory disciplinary life (it is for example required that the young student earn his food by doing community work). For several years now, this education has been subjected to scandalous excesses that have destroyed the rights and future of these children. Indeed, many of her children are forced to beg and suffer all kinds of abuse. LA QUÊTE VIOLÉE, is a documentary on the condition of these young children deprived of their most basic rights and who very quickly find themselves confronted with the harsh realities of life in big cities. The documentary is part of the digital capital project whose goal is to revive and revive our country's masterpieces.
