Summary
Five children (Phumlani, Nomcebo, Sibusiso, Mkhuleko, Zweli) in Eswatini (f.k.a. Swaziland) dive into their imaginations to create an original African tale about a girl on a dangerous quest, guided by legendary South African storyteller Gcina Mhlophe. Their fictional character, Liyana, is brought to life in innovative animated artwork"LIYANA is a genre-defying documentary that tells the story of five children in the Kingdom of Eswatini who turn past trauma into an original tale about a girl named Liyana who embarks on a perilous quest to save her young twin brothers. The film weaves her animated journey together with poetic documentary scenes to create an inspiring story of perseverance and hope."--Film website
