Mmmhhh tu sembles intéressé par "African music". Clique sur les mots clefs qui te plaisent... et hop ne rate plus rien les concernant. A toi de jouer !

In the streets of an African megacity, mopeds, cars, carts, motorcycles, the cries of merchants and animals create a constant symphony. Amidst this acoustic chaos lives SOLEDAD, a young woman in her twenties. Enlisted forcibly as a child, she fled the war. By day, she transforms the sounds of the city into celestial songs, at night into dark melodies of the sounds of war. For Soledad is gifted with exceptional hearing. It is said she sang in her mother's womb. She no longer remembers her mother, as the war took away her memory. She does not remember since when the street has been her home, the fishmonger her aunt, the café owner her uncle. Beckoned by her song, memories pour in like shattered images of her shattered childhood: life in the village with her mother, the sounds and smells of the city, an old man playing strange instruments. Then a blackout. Explosions, houses on fire, children's cries, bewildered faces, child soldiers shooting at the crowd, corpses. Transforming the sounds of the city into music, Soledad tells her terrible story of being a child-soldier. From this existence was born the Child-Music.
