Born in Mogadishu to an Italian father and Ethiopian mother,
Saba has come to represent the meeting of African and European
cultures: as an actress she starred in a long-running TV
drama, playing the role of a policewoman fighting against the
prejudice of her colleagues, while dealing with issues such as
illegal immigration from Africa. On Jidka (The Line), her
musical debut, she explores the divide between Somalia and
Italy with a rare sensitivity and gentle humour; mixing
acoustic guitars and koras with traditional African beats and
contemporary percussion. The result reflects both one woman's
search for her identity and what it means to be alive in the
21 st century, when so many people live in more than one
culture.
