Ricky has a dream: to make Staff Benda Bilili the best band in Congo Kinshasa. Roger, a street child, more than ever wants to join these stars of the ghetto, who get around in customized tricycles. Together, they must avoid the pitfalls of the street, stay united and find the force to hope in music. For six years, from the first rehearsals to their triumph in international festivals, BENDA BILILI! (“beyond appearances”) is the story of this dream come reality.
Benda Bilili! is also available to rent or buy on Apple TV Store and Apple TV Store.
Benda Bilili! was directed by Renaud Barret and Florent de La Tullaye.
Benda Bilili! runs for 1h 26min, and was released in 2010.
