    Desc: Sango Malo: Directed by Bassek Ba Kobhio. With Jeanne Abanda, Epaye Monny Akwa, Jean-Pierre Atangana Messi, Daniel Bakang. Sango Malo contrasts two views of education. The traditional headmaster represents a rigid, "Eurocentric." curriculum designed to produce docile colonial administrators. Malo, the radical young teacher, emphasizes the practical skills needed to build a self-reliant rural community. The film illustrates Brazilian educator Paolo Freire's celebrated distinction between an education which the ruling class uses to inculcate its values in students' minds and one which empowers students to shape their own destiny.
