Africa United

Africa United is a joyous comic adventure that takes you on a road trip through the heart of Africa. Three Rwandan children set off to Rwanda s capital city, Kigali, to audition for the opening ceremony of the Football World Cup.

Armed with ingenuity, determination and blind optimism, they defy wild animals and gun-wielding thugs to travel 3,000 miles to the World Cup opening ceremony. Their travels – through Rwanda, Congo, Burundi, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe and South Africa – reveal a side of Africa few people ever see. Africa United is a story of joy, laughter, hope and generosity.

Critic Reviews:

• " The filmmakers' backgrounds and experiences mean that the film's most picaresque and fairytale-like elements are still grounded in reality. " – Jason Best

• " Road movie, adventure, comedy drama, a will-they-make-it … no matter what label you give it, Africa United is a unique piece of filmmaking, full of the joys and wounds of Africa. " – Andrew L. Urban

• " Has enough charm, colour and humour to win us over by extra time. " – Neil Smith
