Radio La Benevolencija is pleased to announce that its film “I Mashoka“, produced by Pascal Capitolin and Jean-Marie Ndihokubwayo, was screened at the FESPACO filmfestival in Ouagadougou (Burkina Faso) and the Afrikamera festival in Berlin (Germany).

This first ever Burundian science fiction movie follows a man and a woman in the year 2058, who recapitulate what happened 41 years earlier. In 2017 the population fell victim to a major crisis. The water is contaminated, nothing can be harvested or consumed anymore. As the situation turns even more untenable, the society is torn apart by divisions between friends, families and other identity groups.
