Sarah Maldoror ou la nostalgie de l'utopie is a Togolese short documentary film directed by Anne-Laure Folly. It was released in 1999.[1]

The film is a tribute to Sarah Maldoror of Guadeloupe, who made the classic film Sambizanga (1972).[2] The film documents the constant political struggle in all her work for liberty, her affirmation of her négritude to the world, and her campaign for recognition of black poets.[3] At the 1997 FESPACO press conference for her new film Les Oubliées, Anne-Laure Folly Reimann had already paid honor to Sarah Maldoror, saying:

Sarah inspired me to do this film. She made a film called Sambizanga, which in my opinion is one of the masterpieces of African cinema. When I saw it, I had a desire to make a film about Angola. She cleared the way by showing the Angola liberation war from a woman’s perspective. My film is not groundbreaking; she has already done that.[4]
