In Africa albinos who lack pigment in their skin, eyes, and hair are being targeted. There’s a belief system which holds that owning an albino body part or piece of hair will bring wealth and good luck. BAMBA, a documentary about an albino named Bamba who formed The National Association of Senegalese Albinos, follows him on a journey after albinos in Senegal were victims of attack for the first time in the countries history. This documentary exposes the large scale of issues albinos face: attacks on women, discrimination in the school system, limited resources and high rates of cancer related deaths. |
