Aesthetically inspired by the 70s but set in modern day Madagascar, Disco Afrika is a story about twenty-year-old Kwame, who struggles to make a living in the clandestine sapphire mines. Kwame travels back to his hometown by an unexpected turn of events. As he reunites with his mother and old friends, he finds himself confronted with the rampant corruption plaguing his country. A story of political awakening, but also mourning, love and loyalty.
