Juju Factory

Synopsis:
Kongo lives in Brussels, in the Matonge district on which he is writing a book.
His editor wants a kind of traveller’s book spiced with ethnic ingredients. However,
the writer is inspired by the vision of complex and tormented souls that he meets
at all crossings. Kongo Congo follows invisible ways connected to the Congolese
history and its ghosts. How is it possible to stand upright in this chaotic history?
By having the “juju”, self confidence, and Beatrice’s love.
