MANDABI is the exciting one for me--I admire the Bahrani films but don't feel particularly compelled to revisit them just now, I love PARALLAX, and SMOOTH TALK is definitely an unsung gem of the 80s, but African cinema overall is so woefully underrepresented among US distributors that getting Sembene into better circulation is a momentous occasion. I hope they do his entire body of work, and more Med Hondo too. Haile Gerima would be a blessing as well, though if I recall correctly he was pretty dismissive of Criterion when NYT covered their lamentable lack of Black filmmakers.
