LIBREVILLE, OURS

About This Movie

LIBREVILLE, OURS is a reflective piece that dives deep into the soul of Gabon's capital through the eyes of Simon Auge, the director of the earlier work, Once upon a time Libreville. The film has this raw, meditative quality, moving slowly through the streets and memories, contrasting the past with the present. Miihi-Mi Mamboundou Ghis manages to capture the essence of change—like, you really feel the weight of history and the tension of progress. There’s an authenticity to the interviews, the practical effects, and the way they blend old footage with modern shots. It’s not just a documentary; it’s an exploration of identity and time, and the pacing allows for moments of reflection that linger long after the credits roll.
