Three mercenaries extracting a druglord out of Guinea-Bissau are forced to hide in the mystical region of Saloum, Senegal. The film is on Shudder, if that gives you any indication of how that goes.

Directed by Jean Luc Herbulot, from a script he co-wrote with Pamela Diop, who produced.

96% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.

I saw this last night and was completely blown away! Totally surprising and delightful, which feels a little weird to say because there are some real, actual horrors in it.

Same here - watched it a couple of nights ago, and it was fantastic.
