in Tumbuktu.

"Last song before the war"

Scenes from 1st. Festival in the desert

2001 Tin-Essaco

"Last Song Before the War" is a feature-length documentary that captures

the inspiring rise and uncertain future of Mali’s annual Festival in the Desert.

Against the backdrop of stunning musical performances, the film subtly reveals

the challenges and triumphs of creating an artistic event in such challenging

economic and political circumstances. After 12 years of success and

unforgettable musical moments, the Festival in the Desert came to a stop in

2012 when separatist rebels and islamic militants seized control of Northern

Mali.
