For this year’s Online Francophonie Film Screening, we invite you to travel to Djibouti!
Join us for the Irish Premiere of Dhalinyaro (Youth), a 2017 Djiboutian feature directed by the first Djiboutian film director, Lula Ali Ismaïl. This film received critical acclaim and won several awards at international film festivals.
It follows three young women from different socio-economic backgrounds. This is the last year in Secondary School before going to University: Deka and her two best friends have to choose what they will do next year. Should they stay in Djibouti or go abroad to study?
