Door opens for Ndour documentary

Door opens for Ndour documentary

LOS ANGELES – Shadow Distribution, a Waterville, Maine-based independent distributor, has acquired North American rights to Chai Vasarhelyi’s ‘I Bring What I Love: Youssou Ndour’, a music-filled documentary about the Senegalese musician.

The film shows Ndour, a devout Muslim, working on his ‘deeply personal and religious’ album, ‘Egypt’, which he hoped would help promote a more benign portrait of Islam.
But ‘Love’ also chronicles the album’s disappointing reception among Muslims in Senegal, where it is denounced as blasphemous.
Vasarhelyi followed Ndour for more than two years, filming in Africa, Europe and the US. The film’s original score was composed by Martin Davich and James Newton Howard.
