| Star and immigrant |

| Habib Dembélé is a famous star in Mali. Funny and sensitive « Gimba » is the nickname tenderly given to him by the Mali people. He made himself popular not only due to his talent as an actor but also to his positions in politics. For about 10 years, Habib carries on his work abroad, particularly in France. Fetish actor in the Peter Brooke’s company, Gimba went around the world several times. His success has neither influenced his love for his country nor the way he has managed his career. In his opinion, art is the most efficient and pacific weapon to fight injustice. « The artist must be near the political space. If I’m pleased to be on the stage, otherwise there is no sense to be an actor ». About topics liked immigration, corruption or relations between Africa and the West, Habib passes on the authentic words of a southerner. |
