The summer arts festival AFRICAS continued its exploration of African cultures on Friday with a tribute to Mahamat Saleh Haroun, a film director from Chad whose feature films "Bye Bye Africa" (1999), "Abouna" (2002) and "Daratt" (2006) have received international acclaim. The Dartmouth Film Society paid tribute to Haroun in an evening that included the presention of the Dartmouth Film Award and a screening of his newest film, "Daratt" (2006). The tribute began with a short and disastrous clip from Haroun's first feature, "Bye Bye Africa," a docu-drama starring Haroun, who plays a fictionalized version of himself, as he returns home following the death of his mother.
