I've just been watching Camp de Thiaroye by Ousmane Sembene. Quite a shocking portrayal of a camp for returned soldiers who had been prisoners in WW II, who talked back and were massacred. More recently the same director did a film, Moolaade, on a refusal by a group of little girls in Burkina Faso to undergo genital cutting; very powerful.

I saw that movieCamp de thiaroye many years ago and have been looking for a DVD of it. It was excellent, I tried to find out about African soldiers who had been prisoners in WWII. If you know of a book in english with this information I would like to know the title.

I've read God's Bits of Wood and can only imagine how much more powerful his writing would be on screen.
