It’s 2025 and nothing much has changed, but there’s no point in despair. Movoungou is on the rise. Visually amazing, musically captivating this infectious hybrid of horror and sci-fi bursts with unexpected plot twists and genre bending ideas. To say nothing of it’s exploration of gender. This barbed political satire asks the viewer ‘How can you watch a film like this and do nothing after?’.
“the multidimensional character of this film . . . readily hints at its uniqueness in the world of African cinema” - Nchanji M. Njamnsi Bakwa Magazine
Winner Best Actress & Silver Etalon de Yennenga Ouagadougou Panafrican Film and Television Festival 2007
Winner of the Most Innovative Feature Film Prize City of Angel’s Women’s Film Festival 2019
Mae'n 2025 a does dim llawer wedi newid, ond does dim pwynt mewn anobaith. Mae Movoungou ar gynnydd. Yn weledol anhygoel ac yn gerddorol hudolus mae’r hybrid heintus hwn o arswyd a’r ffugwyddonol yn ffrwydro â throellau plot annisgwyl a syniadau sy’n gwyro arddulliau. Heb sôn am ei harchwiliad o rywedd. Mae’r dychan gwleidyddol pigog hwn yn gofyn i’r gwyliwr ‘Sut allwch chi wylio ffilm fel hon a gwneud dim ar ei hôl?’.
