    TORONTO '08 | Powers and Vasarhelyi Celebrate "Youssou Ndour"

    TIFF documentary programmer Thom Powers joined director Chai Vasarhelyi at a post-screening bash for her doc "Youssou Ndour: I Bring What I Love." The film turns the spotlight on one of Africa's most prominent musicians, tenor Youssou Ndour, whose string of internationally popular tracks including collaborations with Peter Gabriel and Neneh Cherry have given him global recognition beyond his native Senegal. His work on poverty and human rights also earned the star a spot in Time Magazine's list of the 100 most influential people in the world.
