Timbuktu

Timbuktu, Mali. With the ancient city having been captured by Islamist militants, its inhabitants are forced to live under new laws that threaten their freedoms and existence. Music, bare flesh and football are forbidden and risk public floggings, or even death. Outside the town, a cattle farmer and his family expect things to return to normal soon but even they are under the watchful eye of the soldiers.
