What I would do in NY next Tuesday, December 9th pt 2.

I would check out Mahamat-Saleh Haroun's new film Sexe, Gombo et Beurre Sale (Sex, Okra and Salted Butter) at Symphony Place.

The comedy, tells the story of Hortense, a 40-year old nurse from the Ivory Coast, who leaves her family for her lover, Jean-Paul, an oyster farmer.

The jilted husband Malik, a macho and a very traditional man, then sees his whole world turn upside down as he discovers that his oldest son is gay.

The arrival of beautiful Amina, the lonely neighbor, and of Malik’s sisters in law from Adidjan, provokes quite a few surprising turns.
