Makeba

The film follows the story of Makeba, a determined young woman who, after spending several years abroad, decides to return to Cameroon with an ambitious project: to invest in her country and contribute to its development. However, this homecoming quickly becomes an uphill battle against the complex realities on the ground. Between bureaucratic hurdles, family betrayals, and social prejudices, Makeba must draw on her roots and inner strength to persevere. Christian Kengne delivers a powerful portrait of the African diaspora and the condition of women, acutely examining notions of patriotism, courage, and identity in a rapidly changing Africa.
