Bravo, Burkina!

Two voices provocatively ask, “How far must we go? How many masks must we wear? Before we see ourselves for who we are?” Walé Oyéjidé’s imaginative debut feature is the story of a Burkinabè boy who migrates to Italy but later discovers a way to go back in time to regain what he lost. The poetic story bends time to explore the meaning of existing in two states, coming and going, running away and running toward. It is a multidimensional exploration of love and migration.
