Director Djo Tunda Wa Munga’s Kinshasa is a seductively vibrant, lawless,

fuel-starved sprawl of shantytowns, gated villas, bordellos and nightclubs and Riva is the city’s perfect embodiment. After sold out sessions in the ‘Crime Scene’ program at MIFF 2011, VIVA RIVA! is contemporary pulp cinema at it’s violent and kinetic best! 

“A blast from start to finish.” VARIETY

“A seductive combination of African mystique and hardboiled noir story telling.”
TWITCH FILM

“It feels so raw and urgent and real.” TORONTO STAR

“Viva Riva!” has its cake and eats it, too. Shoots it to pieces, actually.”
BOSTON GLOBE

“Brutal and simplistic, the film nevertheless delivers rough
excitement with a certain rude style.”
OBSERVER UK

“A frenzy of double-dealing action, sweaty sex and appalling violence that has some real moments of knife-edge tension.”
DAILY EXPRESS

“Viva Riva! succeeds in being violent, erotic and often funny.” THIS IS LONDON

“On the basis of this expertly engineered crime thriller
Djo Munga is a director going places.”

Great to see Nigerian-European artist ASA will be performing at Womadelaide in March. Smooth voice (we can’t get enough of), catchy pop with bits of r&b, world, funk, soul, reggae that’s oh so easy on the ears. Asa said, “I want to show the world that something beautiful and positive can come out of the black continent and inspire young people all over the world.”  Check out some of her videos at http://www.asa-official.com/videos/
