A story of lost love. A journey to justice. Gobeze is a wanderer student who has long searched for his childhood sweetheart and, upon finding her, must go on a long journey with her husband to get justice. Quragnaye is Synergy Habesha’s first feature film which we hope will put into action our company motto to “empower community through media”. This film, a historical drama set 100 years in the past, puts Ethiopian faces, history, culture and language in the forefront and celebrates one of the ways Ethiopia is unique.
This is magical morality play is the impressive feature debut of Moges Tafesse who makes the best of a shoestring budget to create a fabulous fable of love, justice and poetry set in 1916. This is magic realism at its best. Combining breath-taking landscapes with superb performances piqued by humor and irony, Tafesse takes the audience by storm in a tense and moving ethnological drama suffused with passion, jealousy and bitter anger of the traditional Ethiopian Establishment.
