The African Desperate: VIDEOS

The feature debut from renowned artist Martine Syms, THE AFRICAN DESPERATE brings her razor-sharp satire and vivid aesthetic invention to a riotous coming-of-age comedy. Coming to US theaters on September 16 and streaming exclusively (almost) globally soon. A MUBI Release. This electrifying film tracks one very long day for Palace Bryant, a newly minted MFA grad whose final 24 hours in art school become a real trip. She is not going to the fucking graduation party! If this were a reality show, Palace would be the person who was not here to make friends. She needs to get home, back to Chicago from upstate New York. But that means surviving a hazy, hilarious, and hallucinatory night-long odyssey, stumbling from academic critiques to backseat hookups. 30 Days of Great Cinema Free: https://mubi.com/youtube Subscribe to our YouTube channel: https://mubi.io/2XVL0VN Follow us on Instagram: http://mubi.tv/299eJ7G Follow us on Twitter: http://mubi.tv/1PcdRyO Follow us on Facebook: http://mubi.tv/29adiHj Follow us on TikTok: https://mubi.io/3w30MSP
