Description
Vaya follows three strangers boarding a Johannesburg-bound train, united by their quests for family assistance. However, betrayed by those they sought, they become trapped and isolated in the city. The film intricately weaves three plots, converging in a compelling narrative of survival and dignity amid urban challenges. The first story introduces a man seeking a job from his influential cousin, only to discover he must commit murder. The second story follows a young man striving to reclaim his father’s body from his urban “city family.” Lastly, a young woman’s journey reveals her aunt’s hidden life and forces a fateful decision between dreams and responsibility.

Description
In the hushed streets of Timbuktu, vitality has waned; music, laughter, and color have been extinguished. Women dwell as mere silhouettes, overshadowed by pervasive religious extremism. Amid this upheaval, Kidane finds serenity with his family until their tranquility is shattered when his cow’s death leads to an accidental killing. Confronting foreign rulers enforcing rigid Islamic practices, Kidane’s clash unveils a tapestry of defiance. Timbuktu reveals a poignant narrative of resilience, epitomized by the uncertain destiny of a populace’s children.
