feature: ‘crumbs’ – “the first ever ethiopian post-apocalyptic, surreal, sci-fi feature length film”

Check out the trailer for new feature film ‘Crumbs’. The film is directed by Miguel Llansó (a Spaniard based in Ethiopia) and is the first Ethiopian film of it’s kind, centred on a sci-fi romance. Shadow and Act say the film “tells a story of diminutive superhero Gagano (played by Daniel Tadesse), a junk collector, who embarks on a “surreal epic journey” that’s set against “post-apocalyptic Ethiopian landscapes”. He’s had enough of collecting “valuable crumbs of a decayed civilization,” when a spaceship that has been hovering high in the sky for years, starts showing signs of activity, and Gagano has to overcome his fears – which includes a witch, Santa Claus and second-generation Nazis – to find out that the world isn’t quite what he thought it was.” Watch the trailer, below.
