DP75: Tartina City is a 2007 dramatic film by Chadian director Issa Serge Coelo, now at his second feature film. The film has won the Innovation Award at the 31st Montreal World Film Festival.[1] While the country where the action is set remains unnamed, the context is that of Chadian history in the 1980s and 1990s.[2] The name's title is taken from the "tartina", a mixture of bread and sheep's bowels served to the prisoners.[3]
