Teaser of a forthcoming documentary film by Antti Seppänen

Here is a teaser for the forthcoming documentary film by Antti Seppänen where Georges has one of the leading roles.

The film set in West Africa is a “road musical” about encounters of cultures and people and their stories. Stories told with words, with music and dance, and stories untold.
