6/10
Djon Africa works best as a sketched character piece that revels in Cape Verdean culture, and opens up a world of discovery that shows how reality rarely matches up to the expectations of our dreams. Go to Full Review Joe Blessing The Playlist 10/23/2018

Reis and Guerra bring to life the beauty, people, textures, and (stunningly shot) landscapes of Cape Verde as well as the difficulty of finding home. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Sam N Jun 23 Djon Africa is vibrant and full of life, capturing the colour and rhythm of Cabo Verde. Its laid-back hero sets off to find his father in a charming, easygoing quest. But the film drifts. Scenic detours, though lovely, sap the momentum and feel more like travelogue than story. With tighter focus, it could’ve soared. See more Read all reviews
