Mokili

Mokili is the chronicle of a few crucial weeks in the lives of two adolescents in modern-day Burkina Faso: Papou and Goumbé are worlds apart, reacting in opposite ways to their approaching A-level exams. The contrasting way they deal with family and peer relations as well as with the choices they opt for on drugs and sex, easy money, forced marriage and corruption, are revealing of the throes of life faced by young people everywhere, but perhaps even more particularly in contemporary African society today.
