OUAGA SAGA (IFFI 14)

OUAGA SAGA tells the story of ten young friends fighting poverty to realise their dreams in one of Ouagadougou‘s poorest districts. Each one has an ambition - to own a music shop, to be a professional footballer - but they are all poor and realizing their dreams seems almost impossible. But when the boys see a wealthy young woman go into an expensive dress shop and leave her motor-scooter unlocked, they can‘t resist the chance to make some quick money. They steal the bike and sell it, sharing out half the money and stashing the rest at the compound where they live with Bourémah, their older „brother“.
