Buud Yam is a 1997 Burkinabé historical drama film written and directed by Gaston Kaboré. It is the sequel to the film Wend Kuuni. As of 2001, it was the most popular African film ever in Burkina Faso.[3]
The title's meaning is unclear: buud can mean both "ancestors" and "descendants", while yam means "spirit" or "intelligence."[4] It has been translated as Soul of the Group.[5][6]
