Karmen Geï (2001)

8:00pm Wednesday, March 4, 2020

In honor of Tampa’s Pride month, the Tampa Bay International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival (TIGLFF) again this year to present a special one-night-only screening of Karmen Geï (2001), a contemporary Senegalese retelling of the late 19th-century French opera, Carmen.

The story centers around the lusty, impulsive Karmen (Djeinaba Diop Gai), an inmate of a woman’s prison who ignites the passions of the female warden. But are Karmen’s feelings real or just a ploy to escape her captor? The film explores the power dynamics between these women, while addressing the politics and gender roles in Senegal – all to the rhythms of an Afro-jazz score.

Underseen by both mainstream and art-house audiences, Karmen Geï is about the conflict between infinite desire for freedom and the laws, conventions, languages, and human limitations which constrain that desire.
