Disco Afrika: A Malagasy Story

The first film to come out of Madagascar in the last 30 years is a sensuous tale in which a teen muddies his way through grief and sense of self.

Madagascar, nowadays. Twenty-year-old Kwame, who struggles to make a living in the clandestine sapphire mines, is taken 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. Now, he will have to choose between easy money and loyalty; between individualism and political awakening.

Taking you back, we have none other than Leeds' finest, Steve Luigi whose nights at The Gallery were voted the second-best rave venue in Europe by Mixmag magazine. It was ranked just behind the legendary Hacienda in Manchester. This recognition solidified its place in the history of UK rave culture.
