While I found this international look into the African diaspora cinematically beautiful in its realistic portrayal of how things really are in this mythic African country,the reason for our heroes' trek to the motherland became lost in the director and producers determination to make this just another "kill everybody " movie. A lot of time was taken in dubbing to English with voices that bore no resemblance to the faces on the screen. It's a shame ; this tome about oil, dictators, racism, corporate intrigue,, and a Black child ending up in the care of a white Belgium family just doesn't work. Jack Ryan this character is not! And even then this movie would not end.
