The Burial of Kojo

The cinematography was so beautiful. The soundtrack was so beautiful. I never looked away once. The intuition and connections one has with the dream realm and their loved ones, how do you begin to tell it?. This film did.

Which in this case is a synonym for meandering and slow and lack of action. From the description I was expecting more of a fantasy. It turned out to be a dark family drama seen through the eyes of their daughter. The cinematography could've been smoother. The imagery and music were beautiful. I wanted to like this better.

Here is a place where there is death and life .loved the poetry way they used.Although it's slow but the writing was very good and the cinematography too. It was filled with a lot of meanings

Another movie denied its proper place rating-wise by a sparsity of ratings! this was lovely to watch, with a beautifully haunting (original?) soundtrack and surreal, yet captivating cinematography. it's very much a thematic, atmospheric film. there isn't much of a "plot" and while the description / synopsis makes it sound like the movie focuses on the adventures of a girl across a magical land, that isn't the main focus, it's more of a glimpse into life, mythology, setting, guilt, death. less provocative are the characters, who don't stand out very much, and character development often feels a little forced.

This film is beautiful. never seen anything like this before in the history of African cinema.
