Cheick Oumar Sissoko, Ibrahima Toure, Idrissa Ouaedraogo, Issa Baba Traorae, Balla Moussa Keita,  Habib Dembaelae, Kora Films (Firm), Centre national de production cinaematographique du Mali, Direction de la production cinaematographique du Burkina-Faso,  Westdeutscher Rundfunk, California Newsreel (Firm), and Kino International Corporation

A tyrant throws his city into conflict and chaos when he allows his randy, dwarf son to reject an arranged marriage to the slim local beauty in order for him to pursue the girl's larger, married mother. The tyrant then sets his own eyes on the girl, making the situation even worse. An epic set in the legendary past of Mali (West Africa) to provide a biting allegory of present-day African politics. Through the story of the downfall of Guimba the tyrant, the filmmaker foretells a similar fate for the many dictators who still pillage the continent. He frames his film with the appearance of a griot, a traditional African storyteller who passes down the "wisdom of the ancestors", looking to the values and legends of the African past for inspiration and guidance in reconstructing well-governed, self-sufficient nations. 1 videodisc (93 min.)

Sky only has 24 hours to succeed or sacrifice the cash. What he doesn't count on is losing his heart as well.

Orgon is a man of property duped by the false piety of the penniless Tartuffe. Orgon takes him into his house, believing him a paragon of virtue. Orgon orders his daughter to reject her fiance and marry Tartuffe. First Dorine, the family servant, tries a strategy to avert the marriage; then Orgon's son tries his hand. They anger Orgon, and to prove paternal power, he disinherits his son and makes Tartuffe his heir. Next Orgon's wife tries to bring her husband insight, a stratagem that partially backfires. With the bailiff at the door ordering Orgon to vacate his own home and with Tartuffe at court to prove Orgon's a traitor, all seems lost. 1 videodisc (135 min.)
