Documentary filmmaker Katy Lena Ndiaye lives between Dakar and Brussels. Her films put on screen a contemporary Africa, the relationship it has with history, memory, and legacies.
Her previous documentaries Time is on our side (2019), Awaiting for men (2007) and Traces women imprints (2003) have been screened in numerous festivals and museums such as IFFR, FESPACO, FIFA, (Montreal), TFF (Greece), ânûû-rû âboro (New Caledonia), DOCKANEMA (Mozambique), Pitcha (DRC), Real Life Film Festival (Accra), the Metropolitan Museum of New York, the Guggenheim Museum of Bilbao, the Museum of Fine Arts of Montreal, the European, Museum of Photography of Paris, and Haus der Kulturen der Welt of Berlin.
Since 2019, Lena has dedicated herself exclusively to IndigoMood films, a company founded in 2013 and based in Senegal. IndigoMood films is a new challenge and a continuation to Katy Léna’s pathway, accompanying new voices on cinema, exploring new narratives, while also pushing further her desire for cinema.
