Episode 2: Secret Service in Senegal

«The sea makes itself gleamingly beautiful for us – and is fundamentally a dark hole. […] It allows us to believe in freedom, but brings mostly anger at our shore. The sea is a wanton entity that knows neither decorum nor respect – and that is precisely why we can lose neither our perspective nor our sense of it.» (J.-M. Tromontiss, from «Le chant des vents». Port-Louis: Éditions du Musée historique, 2008. p15.)

Music: On 10 May 2008, this brass band roamed all day long through the streets of Goree island, playing music and guzzling beer.
