Keteke (2017)

Keteke: Directed by Peter Sedufia. With Edwin Acquah, Fred Nii Amugi, Adjetey Anang, Lydia Forson. It’s the 80s rail service system, and the train is the only means of transport from the outskirts. A couple – BOI (Adjetey Anang) and ATSWEI (Lydia Forson) is bent on delivering their first baby in Akete but misses their first train. A wrong decision finds them in the middle of nowhere. Will they make it on time for the delivery, or, risk losing the baby and mother?

“Itu0026#39;s a 80u0026#39;s movie, but the cinematography (color) doesnu0026#39;t resemble to that time. The u0026quot;old movieu0026quot; is delivered (poorly) by the custom design, that could also resemble to nowadays, once we live in an eclecticism in fashion.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eDialogues and acting are amazing. Actors owe nothing to the greatest in Hollywood. They both get growing in confidence as the movie goes on. The soundtrack is excellent and it gives dynamics to the first act that is not well accomplished by the image construction.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI think the monotone landscape and lack of variation in frame doesnu0026#39;t help to tell the story, but the real problem is a structural problem in screenplay. There is no main emotional conflict between characters. Losing a train and expecting a birth arenu0026#39;t sufficient to attach the audience unless these facts work as a ground (pretext) to ignite a latent conflict between them.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBut again, acting and soundtrack are worth watching this movie. Itu0026#39;s a light and delightful movie indeed as another review has said. Good choice to relax and also to study about movie making out of Hollywood, mainly on peripheral countries where the lack of investments on cinema reflects on a not-so-good cinematography.”
