Amet Diallo

Died in 1994

Amet Diallo was a filmmaker, journalist, actor and photographer in Dakar. He signed this film in 1991, from a screenplay written with Boubacar Boris Diop, Laurence Gavron and Juliana Sanchez. Without a job most of the time, he performed in a jazz club in the city. One evening in October, on leaving this club, he collapsed in a street in Dakar, felled by an asthma attack; he was forty-one. The filmmaker Laurence Attali devoted a portrait to him in 1995.
