A Hole in the Sky
Godka ciirka
Masterful, modest document providing insight into the mind of a rural Somali girl. She accepts that tradition demands that she has to make a great sacrifice. The boundary between fact and fiction dissolves thanks to the poetic voice-over.
Also in this combined programme

In Ethiopia music is of a different calibre and overcomes the deepest traumas, even deafness. Rhythmic drama. -

Street children try their luck at the Sunday fair in Maputo. As if Chaplin were still alive and in Mozambique. -
Shoeshine
Colourful and light like a comedy yet provides social commentary on Tanzanian society. A shoeshine man against the world.
