We’re so saddened to hear about Chance’s passing. Having met him on the film committee, I always found him to be inquisitive, friendly + passionate about his craft and how he could use his experience to make things better for others. Rest in peace, Chance, a true gent. ❤️

'A striking debut... lyrical, languid.' - Variety

Set against the terrestrial majesty of the Sahel, BANEL & ADAMA is a tragic romance following two young lovers as they strive for independence and self-possession in the face of imperious tradition.
