This Magnificent Cake! (2018)
Directed by Emma De Swaef, Marc James Roels
Animation, History, Comedy, Drama, Mystery · 45m
In 1885, Africa is a succulent cake destined to be wildly divided and everyone wants a piece. A disturbed European king, a Pygmy working in a luxury hotel, a successful but lonely businessman, an enslaved porter, a young army deserter, a ghostly clarinetist. Some benefit from colonialism and greed. Others suffer racism and violence.
