 Taafe Fanga
Taafe Fanga opens in a contemporary village setting.
He comes up against the forces of modern corruption embodied in the regime of Samou Traore (a thinly-veiled reference to Moussa Traore, whose 23-year corrupt regime was about to fall), which cynically seeks to maintain traditional practices when it suits its purposes.
Dogon mythology gave him the tools to comment allegorically on the contemporary status of women, both in reference to their positive role in bringing about the downfall of Traore, and in terms of their second-class status.

 Taafé Fanga (1997)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
It's a nice, well-told story with a very clear point: women deserve an equal say with men in the way their and their families lives are led.
Taafé Fanga makes this simple though profound point by connecting contemporary reality with the collective memory of the not-so-distant past and from there to the mythic origins of the Dogon people and their culture of masks, dance and legend.
The Dogon of course are one of the world's great mystery peoples, whose ancient cosmology is based on the 50-year cycle of the Star Sirius B - the existence of which was not discovered by Western Science until the 1960s....

 California Newsreel - TAAFE FANGA
"Taafe Fanga, through humor and imagination, offers a masterful and utterly involving introduction to the Dogon worldview.
In Taafe Fanga, Drabo has revised the Sigi myth (which seems originally to have expressed male anxiety over female control of fecundity) into a myth about women's right to resist patriarchy, in the griot's words, "to fight for the right to be different and equal.
