PUBLIC TOILET AFRICA
Special Features: Closing Night. Q&A with filmmaker Kofi Ofosu-Yeboah
[AMANSA TIAFI]
Years after her disappearance, a reticent Ama (Briggitte Appiah) returns to the city where she was gifted to a white art collector as a little girl. Her quest to repay an old debt goes into a tailspin when she recruits an ex-lover (David Klu) for the ride and their fate becomes tied to two people with whom they cross paths. Evoking the vitality of African New Wave gem TOUKI BOUKI, this pulpy revenge tale marks the bold and visually arresting debut of Ghanaian filmmaker Kofi Ofosu-Yeboah. A spunky genre mash-up of road movie and gangster film, it's a tale that is alive to the music of Afrobeat and the rhythms of present-day Accra. (Note adapted from MUBI.) DIR/SCR/PROD Kofi Ofosu-Yeboah. Ghana, 2021, color, 95 min. In English, Twi, Ewe, Ga and Polish with English subtitles. NOT RATED
