    • Synopsis
    • FÉLICITÉ is a passionate, heartfelt story about a singer in the Democratic Republic of Congo, who travels around Kinshasa to find the funding for her son’s recovery after a motor accident. The film is full of energy, despair and hope, upbeat Senegalese street music and a remarkable performance by main actress Vero Tshanda Beya. It is a tale of love, struggle, survival and motherhood.
