Church Street

Synopsis

A story about the power of sex stripped away from morality and judgement. A glimpse into a part of our society that is very rarely represented and a tradition that is as old as our morality.
The key question in the movie and even the root of the movie lies in the character Annabelle's line: "There are people who get punched for money, they are called boxers, it’s even a sport. Better I get fu*cked for money."
I think sex is far more natural than violence and yet we glorify violence and shun sexual desire. This story is our way of opening that conversation.
(Mbeng Ngassa, Nkanya Nkwai)
