Minimals in a Titanic World: a portrait of friendship
Minimals in a Titanic World is the debut feature by Rwandan filmmaker Philbert Aimé Mbabazi Sharangabo. In her role, Aline portrays the central character, Anita, a dancer and aspiring musician.
The film, set in the Rwandan capital Kigali, follows Anita after she leaves prison after being let off with a warning for aggression. After learning of the sudden death of her boyfriend, she finds comfort in her boyfriend’s roommate, Shema.
”[Minimals in a Titanic World] is a deeply moving exploration of love, loss, and self-discovery, and I’m honored to be part of it. Huge gratitude to Philbert, Imitana Productions and the entire team for their vision and dedication. I’m very excited for you all to experience this amazing story, and also curious to see how my interpretation of the character translates.”
