Just as she filmed the rebirth of the four Indian chiefs who triumphed over General Custer's Seventh Cavalry, she also filmed the materials and the tiles of the house Sow recently had built in Dakar. This house, which he considers a work in its own right, takes the symbolic form of a sphinx. For the Dakar exhibition, Soulé went from a private to public vision, from close-up to general shot, as she filmed the transport of the works, their installation, and their departure for the "Pont des Arts" in Paris to join the Noubas, Masaïs, Zulus and Peuls.
