Superhero Sandale-man is Senegal's Black Panther

The director of a film about African superhero Sandale-man hopes more characters like this will bring money to the continent instead of Hollywood.

The Senegalese hero fights crime by throwing sandals at villains.

Co-director of Sandale-man Jean Jacques Toué, says what started out as a joke became a tool for local representation.
