Mahama Konaté, a great musician from Burkina Faso, initiates his son Foko into traditional culture with a musical instrument, the African xylophone. He shows him how to make one, and recounts its mythical origins; he desribes the sacred and profane role this instrument plays in society. "A village chief without a xylophone player is like a king without a crown", he tells Foko. Burkina Faso, 1989, Documentary Running Time: 26' Original Version: moré Produced by: Arcadia Films
