In the organizer's words:

Ryan Marley / Canada / 2026 / 87 min.

Amadou & Mariam have been performing together for more than five decades - two extraordinary musicians from Mali who have become international icons despite their early blindness. Their sound is unmistakable: rhythmic, warm and full of energy. What has sustained them all these years is their greatest love - for music and for each other. Between worldwide fame and a close bond with their homeland, they have now come full circle with a final album and a major concert in Mali, where their journey together began.
