Dolce Vita Africana is a documentary about the internationally renowned Malian photographer Malick Sidibé, whose iconic images from the late 1950s through the 70s captured the carefree spirit of his generation asserting their freedom after independence and up until an Islamic coup ushered in years of military dictatorship. The filmmaker travels to Malick Sidibé's studio in Bamako, Mali, to witness the artist at work and meet many of the subjects of his earlier photographs, whose personal stories also tell the history of Mali.

Cherchant à percer le mystère de la création, le cinéaste se dit : «Pour savoir ce qui se passe dans la tête d'un peintre, il suffit de suivre sa main». Un habile stratagème lui permet de réaliser son projet insensé : par transparence, chaque trait tracé par la main du célèbre artiste apparaît dans l'espace. Mais l'exécution, par Pablo Picasso, de dessins et de tableaux, ne fait que gonfler davantage le mystère qui plane autour de lui : en effet, chacun des traits qu'il effectue étonne et déconcerte. Des toreros blessés et des nus sont ainsi créés, comme par magie, fruits d'un travail acharné qui connaît parfois quelques échecs.

The filmmaker finds himself in frequent conflict with his son, who is no longer the delightful child the father loved, but an argumentative young adult who inhabits virtual worlds available through the internet. To the father, the son seems to be addicted to and permanently distracted by those worlds. The filmmaker undertakes a journey to St. Quay-Portrieux in Brittany where he worked for a spring as a wedding photographer’s assistant at age 24 –slightly older than his son is now. He has not been back to St. Quay since that visit, and hopes to gain some perspective on what his own life was like when he was his son’s age. He also hopes to track down his former employer, a fascinating Frenchman named Maurice, and Maud, a woman with whom he was romantically involved during that spring 38 years ago. Photographic Memory is a meditation on the passing of time, the praxis of photography and film, digital versus analog, and the fractured love of a father for his son.
