Blu-ray Review Touki Bouki – Criterion Blu-ray Review (1 Viewer)

Founded by Martin Scorsese in 2007, the World Cinema Project (courtesy of The Film Foundation) preserves and presents movies from regions and countries around the world that are ill equipped to preserve their own movies; some of them are early works of master filmmakers and some are great works that – until now – went largely unnoticed. Touki Bouki (The Journey of the Hyena) is one of those works that have been given a new lease on cinematic life thanks to this project.
