Ekoua

In 2088, several African countries are now under the domination of Grazers, unscrupulous cybercriminals, desperate to achieve their goals. They are at the head of the highest financial institutions and set up scam techniques that are better and better developed, due to an advanced technology but above all thanks to mysticism. Among them, The Great Grazer, the most powerful and the richest is at the head of this new order. Recently appointed a priest by the council of elders, Ekoua, a carefree 19-year-old girl is entrusted with a mission of the highest importance that could upset this new order forever. She must repair a mistake made in the past before it is too late. To do this, Ekoua is called to meet The Great Grazer.

Directed by Abel N'guessan Kouame, Ekoua leans on a strong ensemble — Orlane Aolio, Guy Kalou, Bienvenu Neba — 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 animation titles of 2020.
