Omen
Augure / Baloji / Belgium, France, South Africa, Congo, Democratic Republic of the, Netherlands 2023 / 92 min. / 15 years / DCP
Do you have nosebleeds? Do you feel physically drawn to people of the same sex? Have you always been a bit different? Well, you’ve probably been possessed by the devil. At least that’s what a Congolese family believes, having decided to disown their own son, Koffi, because of such signs. But Koffi is returning after eighteen years. And he’s not the only one who feels wronged.
