About Félicité
Félicité, a strong and proud woman, sings in bars in Kinshasa. She drifts away from reality when her 14-year-old son gets into an accident. In electric Kinshasa, she wanders in a world of music & dreams... until love unexpectedly brings her back to life.
Directed by Alain Gomis, Félicité leans on a strong ensemble — Véro Tshanda Beya Mputu, Gaetan Claudia, Papi Mpaka — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about music titles of 2017.
