Violent

The film explores the roots of urban and domestic violence through an uncompromising portrait of a Congolese society gripped by moral and economic crises. Albe Diaho portrays characters pushed to their breaking point, where frustration morphs into uncontrollable aggression. The narrative doesn't simply depict physical violence; it dissects the psychological and verbal violence that erodes homes and social relationships. By following the intersecting life trajectories amidst the city's turmoil, the director poses a fundamental question: how can we break the cycle of inherited and normalized violence? A powerful work that acts as a mirror held up to the brutal realities of Kinshasa and the major cities of the RDC.
