The Koro of Bakoro, the Survivors

Polo has been roaming around Ouagadougou since childhood. He has grown up now. At 29, he is the eldest of a group who live from odd jobs and getting high. A harsh immersion in a reality as rough as the asphalt missing from the streets of Ouaga, “The Koro of Bakoro, the Survivors of Faso” is above all a view from the inside. Simplice Herman Ganou is as familiar as Polo and his gang with the streets where they live, trying to sell salvaged solar lamps that have been customised “with a flavour of Bakoro”.
