The Lion King (2019)
A story set in Africa without the Africans
2019 the director had a perfect opportunity to be more progressive in telling this African story and failed miserably, CGI was great but over all the film still felt unauthenticate real shame.
Rafiki (2018)
A beautiful tragic love story
I just thought it was great, it held my attention all the way through, lack of budget and Hollywood stars wasn't an issue at all, I even since learnt one of the main characters never acted before in her life so that was a total shock to me.
The director did really well to seek out the right talent she needed for this movie, in a way I feel that is what makes this film even more authentic, real Africans telling their own stories.
It's a real shame Kenya banned the movie but the band was lifted for 7 days in thos 7 days it sold out completely.
I really do feel if this movie gets the support it deserves and maybe win some awards they will have no choice but to lift the ban in kenya and hopefully change some of their laws in regards to freedom of expression.
