Augure

Description

After years in Belgium, Koffi returns to his native Congo to introduce his pregnant girlfriend to his family. After all these years, the ancient belief in witchcraft, sorcery and superstition turns out to remain strong. This directorial debut by Belgian-Congolese rapper Baloji was the Belgian entry for the Oscars in 2023 and won a prize at Cannes that same year. Unique: prior to this film, you will get an “enchanting” tour of the Wereldmuseum Leiden!
