7pm: Jupiter's Dance
Renaud Barrett, 2007, France, 60 mins

In the Congo, the ghettos of the capital city of Kinshasa are home to an exciting cultural revolution. This documentary chronicles the inspiring story of Jupiter Bokondji, a local musician and bandleader, who introduces the viewer to a wide variety of his city's musical artisans. Teen rappers, homeless children, griot singers, and handicapped bluesmen are just some of the talents seen in this moving glimpse of Congolese life.
