From NetFlix:
As the Chadian government declares nationwide amnesty after years
of war, 16-year-old Atim (Ali Barkai) sets out to take revenge on
the man who killed his father. After traveling to the capital, Atim
locates the man, but instead of finding a coldhearted murderer, he
comes across something entirely different. From the director of Bye
Bye Africa, Daratt is a compelling moral standoff as piercing for its
visuals as it is for its narrative.
The NetFlix raves a bit too much. This is one S L O W W W W W film. Acting is more than understated. It is a chance to see Chad. I can only hope that the characters behave in a manner that real Chadians would do. I don’t regret watching Daratt, but it is definitely not for everyone. In some African language plus French. English subtitles.
