Benda Bilili! (2010)

Benda Bilili! | France| Congo

Five paraplegics and a young able-bodied teenager must avoid the pitfalls of the street, stay united and find the force to hope in music. Benda Bilili! – in English “beyond appearances”, is the name of a Kinshasa band which has acquired a global following, having erupted out of the Congo in the past couple of years and taken Europe by storm. From the first rehearsals to their triumph in international festivals, Benda Bilili! is the story of this dream come reality, as well as a plunge into the streets of Kinshasa without a safety net. Cast: Leon Likabu, Roger Landu, Coco Ngambali Yakala Directed by: Florent de la Tullaye, Reno Barre
