年轻一代第七季

　　舞蹈家何丽（李颖 饰）抛弃了女儿丁小寒（陈乔恩 饰）和丈夫丁亦明（蒋恺 饰），只身一人来到英国深造，并且在那里生下了第二个女儿何菲（戴菲菲 饰）。在何菲十岁那年，何丽将她送回了国内的舞蹈学院上学，机缘巧合之下，何丽和妹妹丁小寒相识了。
　　何丽和丁小寒同时喜欢上了名叫杨睿（明道 饰）的男孩，面对两个同样娇俏可人的姑娘，杨睿不知道该如何选择。何菲成为了著名歌剧《图兰朵》中的女主角，然而在演出前期，她却因为胃疾复发而无缘舞台。作为她的替补，丁小寒获得了登上舞台的难能可贵的机会，然而，就在演出的最高潮，丁小寒的眼疾发作。

　　The film accompanies Magaye Niyang, a star of Touki-Bouki, a 1972 classic directed by her own uncle Djibril Diop. Following this path, we are witness of Niyang travel to a special screening of the film, which has a public release in his old town. Niyang seems detached and with a heavy longing from the past, and therefore, the film debris permeates everything with unescapable sorrow and fascination.
　　Diop film is, first and foremost, a nostalgic travel through memory, time and recreation. It is also a watermark in contemporary experimental documentary, a very intimate portrait of a lost long journey through the past that isn’t returning anymore, a detachment of rejected fame, recognition and connection which is heavily grounded on a legacy that belongs to the past, and that connects directly to a country (Senegal) and its heritage, which is sometimes feel excruciating for the old ones (a testimony such as the taxi scene in the film, where the cab driver longs for changes, and claims that the old generation had done nothing for that).
　　Mille Soleils (A Thousand Suns) and, in itself, Mati Diop’s crucial talent, should be a point of reference into what could easily be one of the most interesting proposals of hybrid documentary cinema which has come from France, and which deals with a strong African heritage. Since 35 Rhums, where she proved her actress talent, Diop seems like a true promise for the following years of cinema.
