Métis, les enfants cachés de la colonisation 

During the Belgian colonial empire, in Congo, Rwanda and Burundi, several thousand children of mixed race were victims of targeted segregation, which is still unknown today. Born to a Belgian father and an African mother, these children were hidden and isolated by the state, taken from their families and placed in boarding schools. On the eve of the conquest of independence by the 3 states, a legal kidnapping was organized: several hundred of the children were forcibly expatriated to Belgium and placed in foster families. The film tells the story of Evariste and Lena, Charles, François, Luc and Eveline. 60 years after the events, these witnesses revisit their past, following the search for their roots and their own identity, trying to close the wounds of childhood.

Indie Film Review "Andhela Ravamidhi" The pursuit of dreams, obstacles to overcome, patriarchal mindsets, empowerment, and life’s beauty artistically and compellingly collideIndie Film Review "Andhela Ravamidhi"

What are we willing to walk through to see our dreams come to pass? Our minds might be so wholly alive with the passions we carry and the plans we make to see these things become all we wish them to be, yet life doesn’t always want to come alongside. Instead, obstacles arise, both physical and mental, which attempt to dissuade us or even prevent us from moving forward, stalling or stagnating the momentum to achieve what we desire. The age-old question remains….can we overcome? Or will we BE overcome?
