Movie Review: Mama Africa
Summary: 5 Stars
This was an EXCELLENT purchase - I got a chance to see different African Filmakers from all walks of life bring stories to the big screen and it was wonderful. This is definitely the Aesop's fables of Africa, with each story having a lesson, and I recommend it to EVERYONE who likes a great independent film!
Summary of Mama Africa - She's In Your Soul
Presented by superstar musician, actress and talk show host Queen Latifah, Mama Africa is a tapestry of dynamic stories told by women. Coming from an African perspective, but universal in its themes, this trilogy of short films explores the hardships of cFew feature-length African films get released in the U.S., so it's rare indeed to get to see worthy short films from that vast continent. Mama Africa consists of three such films--all directed by women--and actress-musician Queen Latifah introduces each one. The first, Bridget Pickering's "Uno's World," is from Namibia and centers around Uno (Sophie David), a 25-year-old party girl who falls for a commitment-shy criminal and gives birth to his child. Ngozi Onwurah's "Hang Time" is from Nigeria and concerns poor but promising basketball player Kwami (Brian Birogi), who makes a Faustian deal for a new pair of sneakers. Lastly, Zulfah Otto-Sullies's "Raya," from South Africa, portrays the difficulties facing a single mother attempting to go straight after a stint in prison. All three films present universally difficult moral quandaries that aren't always satisfactorily resolved, but are well acted by talented performers. --Kathleen C. Fennessy
