Ottawa Animation 15 – ADAMA – Featured Competition

First Festival Screening – September 17, 2015 @ 7:00 PM at The ByTowne Cinema
Last Festival Screening – September 19, 2015 @ 9:15 PM at The ByTowne Cinema

Adama is the story of our 12 year-old eponymous hero and his decision to leave the remote West African village in which he grew up in order to find his missing older brother, Samba. Beyond the village, Adama travels through war-torn Europe to the hell of the frontlines in order to free Samba, his love for whom takes him down unexpected paths on this life-changing journey away from home. With an innovative, dream-like visual style, Adama powerfully connects themes of spirituality and community with the political and personal realities of war.

Director – Simon Rouby
