Reviews

"Sandale-man is a beautiful representation of African producers coming together to both support one another and expand the Senegalese film and entertainment industry without waiting for outside assistance"

"The Sandale-man is proving to be a force to be reckoned with as anyone who has ever been on the receiving end of the Dunlop slippers/sandal will instantly relate and fall in love with the character."
