Jo, a witty, 9-year-old terminally ill girl is taken back to her rural village to live out the rest of her short life. Her only comfort during these dull times are her dreams of being a Superhero, which prove to be something her rebellious teenage sister, Mwix, overprotective mother, Kathryn, and the entire village of Maweni think they can fulfill.
This screening of Supa Modo is part of the African Film Festival presented by Duke’s Africa Initiative, a division of the Center for International & Global Studies, which takes places through the month of February.
