A Senegalese platoon of soldiers from the French Free Army return from combat and are temporarily held in a military encampment with barbed wire fences and guard towers in the desert. Among them are charismatic Sergeant Diatta, educated in Paris and has a French wife and child, and Pays, a soldier left in a state of shock who can only communicate in guttural screams and grunts.
Camp de Thiaroye was directed by Thierno Faty Sow and Ousmane Sembène.
Camp de Thiaroye runs for 2h 34min, and was released in 1988.
