FILM REVIEW -- African Parable Of Greed / Laughter with bite in `Hyenas'
PETER STACK, Chronicle Staff Critic Published 4:00 am PDT, Wednesday, June 14, 1995
         HYENAS: Comedy from Senegal. Starring Mansour Diouf and Ami Diakhate. Directed by Djibril Diop Mambety. (Unrated. 110 minutes. In Wolof with English subtitles. At the Red Vic Movie House through Tuesday.)
In "Touki-Bouki" and other films, Senegalese director Djibril Diop Mambety has expressed a bitter sense that European and American capitalism has destroyed traditional values in Africa, replacing them with the urban hells of poverty, crime and disease.
The theme arises again in Mambety's funny, barbed parable, "Hyenas," opening today for a week- long run at the Red Vic Movie House.
"Hyenas" is seductively filmed, playing in spare but stunning ways on the colors of its setting, a remote desert village. The earth is a rich orange-red and the people wear primary colors as if in defiance of the drab desert landscape.
The village, once idyllic, has been sliding into terrible poverty for a number of years. "Hyenas" opens on scenes of the village fathers hocking the furnishings of town hall to pay their debts.
The story focuses on a kindly middle-aged grocer named Dramaan (Mansour Diouf). One day word arrives of the return of a former resident, a woman who once was the local beauty courted by the grocer, but who long ago departed. Now she returns as a grand lady, "the world's richest woman."
Hoping that Linguere (Ami Diakhate) will be generous and help the impoverished town out of its financial tailspin, the residents put on their finest clothes and declare the grocer the next mayor. They send him out to kiss up to the woman, since he once courted her.
In fact, she has returned to the village with the singular intention of sharing her millions to help her people -- but she wants something in return. She wants the villagers to kill the grocer because he impregnated her as a teenager but refused to 'fess up to being the father of her child. Not only that, he tainted their love by paying two other men to say they had also made love with her and either might be the father. Based on a 1956 play, "The Visit," by Swiss playwright Friedrich Durrenmatt, "Hyenas" is infused with a bitterly funny edge as Mambety twists the focus from one element of human folly to another, ultimately revealing a cynical vision of people selling out while packs of hyenas, vultures and other predators circle the village.

Hyenas (1992)
Director: Djibril Diop Mambety
Writer: Djibril Diop Mambety, Friedrich Dürrenmatt (play)
Genre: Comedy, drama
Duration: 110min
Cast: Ami Diakhate, Djibril Diop Mambéty, Mansour Diouf
Note, this isn’t the full cast and crew list
 People consider this film one of the greats, especially within the Nigerian community, although to me I don’t really understand why. After reading a few reviews, some blowing this film up to be one of the best and others tearing this film apart, I must say I agree with those who see the film as lesser.
If we take a look at film canonisation, which basically means a list of films, where exactly do we place this piece? According to Schrader in a fifteen-page article he wrote titled Canon Fodder, he explains a refurbished criteria of film canon, that there are five criterions to consider when evaluating film as canons. The first being beauty, he says that beauty is something that actually means lesser than extraordinary, meaning beauty is a compliment and also an insult to those looking through the eyes of the arts.
Another criterion Schrader explains is tradition, he explains that tradition is something we use to our advantage and in film happens to be something we constantly draw from. So to say a film is for example a Tarantino film, is also saying its all the filmmakers’ film that previously inspired his vision. So why does these film canons matter when we look at a film like Hyenas (1992), well beauty is something I would associate with this film. To me it’s not extraordinary, but if you really look at it, it does in some way capture the beauty of the culture and the wild in a sense of ‘Africa’. I also associate tradition as one of the criteria to be used to evaluate this film. From a literal point of view, it could hypothetically mean the happening of events in the life of the director and thereafter led to a manipulative depiction on screen. Another literal point of view set in the traditional canon criteria could be that a lot of people saw the film as a sequel to Touki Bouki (1973) that was also directed by Djibril Diop Mambety.
Overall, I give this film a three out of ten.
