L'Absence is a 2009 film.

Synopsis

After doing brilliantly in his studies and a 15-year absence, Adama, a young polytechnician, rushes back to Senegal, his home country, when he receives a telegram saying his grandmother is very ill. His brief stay will revive a family drama seemingly forgotten. The film reflects director Mama Keita's experience with African students who study abroad and are content to be spectators of the poverty and violence in Africa.

Awards

gollark: Sandy Bridge was 2011, and Intel is widely regarded as having not really done much since then until pretty recently.
gollark: I mean, I suppose it could maybe make sense if the original one was a bad dual-core and the new one is hexacore and they didn't run it long enough for it to thermally throttle horribly.
gollark: Intel CPUs haven't,except in core count.
gollark: Not really.
gollark: A quadrupling of CPU power in Mac Minis 7 years apart seems... unlikely, honestly?
