One of the hottest groups in French rap in the 90s is making a comeback this year. A few months ago, Doc Gyneco announced the reformation of Secteur Ä in its entirety, including Doc Gyneco, Passi, Pit Baccardi, Ärsenik, Stomy Bugsy, les Neg' Marrons, Mc Janik and Singuila. To mark the occasion, the first episode of a documentary dedicated to the Secteur Ä collective has just been released. In it, the members talk about their memories of the time, but also about how rap and hip-hop have evolved over the past 30 years.

Secteur Ä

A chronological and thematic history of French rap, told through a list of 11 short films, emblematic titles from 1990 to the present day. Each episode ends with an original cover by an emerging French artist or rapper.

French Game

Mina was adopted from Ethiopia by Judith and Lionel, a married couple who already were the parents of a biological daughter. Though she was abandoned by her mother as a baby, it didn't really seem to have much of an impact on her. But when Mina turns thirteen, an identity crisis takes a hold of the girl. She is caught between two worlds - and feels nowhere at home. Mina snaps and descends into a destructive downwards spiral. Jealous of her non-adopted sister, she starts acting out, pitting her father and mother against each other and thereby dividing the entire family. Judith and Lionel don't know what to do. Will their parental love and kindness be enough to heal Mina's wounds?
