The film:
Picture 200 musicians playing Beethoven’s Ninth in the Congo! The film follows West Africa’s only symphonic orchestra: Orchestre Symphonique Kimbanguiste of Kinshasa, as it prepares for its first open air concert in its neighborhood, Ngiri-Ngiri. It is also a study of people doing their best to maintain a most complex human joint endeavor in one of the world’s most chaotic cities. This powerful film is about the Congo, the people of Kinshasa and the power of music.
