Balanced with magical realism and an exquisite African pop soundtrack, War Witch tells the story of a young girl kidnapped into a life of guerilla warfare.
Komona is only 12 when she is kidnapped into a life of guerrilla warfare in the African jungle. Forced to commit unspeakable acts of brutality, she finds hope in her imagination and in a fellow soldier named Magician with whom she plots her escape. Balanced with magical realism and an exquisite African pop soundtrack, “the powerful things we expect from War Witch are as advertised, but what we don't expect is even better” (LA Times). D: Kim Nguyen, Canada, subtitled, 2013, 90m
