A NOIR "Intro and National Holiday in Maroua" Award-winning artdocu movie by Ralf Schmerberg with the music from Ralf Hildenbeutel. "HOMMAGE A NOIR, stunningly filmed in black and white, is a visual, musical poem to the people of contemporary Africa. Not one word is spoken, for none are necessary. The haunting imagery of the film is accompanied by a continuous soundtrack, a seamless fusion of traditional rhythms and cutting-edge electronica, by Ralf Hildenbeutel.
