Synopsis

It has always been a firm conviction of the family that any woman who sings, will die.

Now, while a girl is in France she becomes an international star.

She realises that sooner rather than later her mother in Africa will learn that she sings.

To solve this dilemma she goes back to her native village and arranges her own funeral, albeit with instantaneous rebirth.

She is lying in the coffin while all invited guest form a queue and pass the coffin one by one.

When she needs go to the toilet a boy will take her place.

And then one of the guests says: How different she looks after having died.

Is this an allusion to Bergman's movie "Now About These Women"?

The use of traditional African music elements in the soundtrack seemed forced and out of place at times, detracting from the overall listening experience. It felt like the incorporation of these elements was done without much thought or consideration for how they fit within the context of the story.
