<span id="docs-internal-guid-ff48c1dd-7fff-f6f0-1a7d-096c451c14ab"><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif; background-color: transparent; font-variant: normal; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This critically acclaimed documentary directed by Mati Diop explores the return of 26 royal treasures looted from the Kingdom of Dahomey by French colonial forces to the West African nation of Benin. Blending striking imagery with imagined reflections from the artifacts themselves, the film examines the complex relationship between cultural heritage, colonial history, and national identity. Affecting and thought-provoking, DAHOMEY confronts the legacy of colonial plunder and raises profound questions about who owns history. Presented in English, with French and Fon subtitles. </span></span>DocumentaryPT1H8MNR2027-02-04FRfr
