Directed by Becky Lamming & Produced by Sylvain Leroux for l’école fula flute

Assembled from a decade’s worth of video clips, this documentary follows street kids in a Conakry alternative music school as they grow into full-fledged artists.

In 2009, two veteran Guinean theater activists founded the Centre Tyabala de Guinée and began recruiting street kids and provide them with training in theater arts—acting, dancing, drumming, and singing—alongside an elementary education.

A few years later, Canadian flutist Sylvain Leroux brought an alternative music literacy pilot program based on the traditional Guinean “Fula flute.” The merging of these two initiatives propelled the kids to extraordinary heights of creativity and self-realization. This film recounts their journey.

Audiences are engrossed and feel enriched to get so close to these young people, to enter their world, develop affection and root for them in the pursuit of their goals while experiencing the rich textures of daily life in the Guinean capital.

Hello all,

Sorry we have to cancel due to the excessive rain and soggy grounds. We'll reschedule the film at a later date.

Thanks for understanding.
