    Desc: Coupe! Une Histoire Décalée: Directed by Osita Aneke, Toussaint Aka. With Bolado, Djassacite, Jean Jacques Kouame, DJ Lewis. The documentary is a 90-minutes, in-depth, colourful and cutting edge exploration of this music phenomenon which took the world by storm. Armed with computers and music programming software, Ivorian Diaspora decided to use the healing power of music to ease the pain of their people...They made Coupé Décalé. Just as Reggae put Jamaica on the map and Hip-Hop developed from the US to invade our global consciousness. Coupé decale is also making a feverish path across Africa, Asia, Europe and the Americas. We trace the beginnings of Coupé decale and its subsequent development. The film is shot in Abidjan, London and Paris as we seek to understand and experience the cultural, social and political tapestry which served as an inspiration for the music. Ultimately, the film is a reminder to those that know and a wake-up call to those that do not. Cote D'Ivoire is now on the map.
