Well its contest time again here at the Fix and this time we have a little under the radar charmer up grabs! OKA! has landed on store shelves as of last week, Tuesday October 22nd, and thanks to the amazing folks at Well Go USA we have 3 copies to give away!
Based on the true story of Louis Sarno, an American ethnomusicologist who finds himself trying to record and preserve the music of the Bayaka pygmies, the thoughtful drama OKA! debuts on Digital, Blu-ray™ and DVD October 22nd from Well Go USA Entertainment. 25 years ago, Sarno traveled from New Jersey to the forests of Central Africa to record the music of the Bayaka Pygmies. He fell in love with the people, their music, their lifestyle – and a local girl. Despite his failing health and the harsh realities of life in the village, he follows the Bayaka into the heart of the forest. Directed by Lavinia Currier (Passion in the Desert, Heart of the Garden), the film stars Kris Marshall (Love Actually, Easy Virtue), Isaach De Bankole (Casino Royale, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly), Will Yun Lee (The Wolverine, Total Recall) and the Bayaka of Yandombe.
Synopsis:
25 years ago, ethnomusicologist Louis Sarno traveled from New Jersey to the forests of Central Africa to record the music of the Bayaka Pygmies. Falling in love with a Bayaka girl and her forest lifestyle, he decided to stay. “OKA!” tells the adventure of his life in Africa with his adopted family. The Bayaka pygmies maintain a tenuous balance between their traditional forest existence and their increasing dependence on the Bantu villagers. Through the eyes of Larry, the tall, ungainly white man from New Jersey, who in spite of his failing liver accompanies the Bayaka on a journey into the heart of the forest, OKA! offers a unique glimpse into the music, humor, and spirit of the Bayaka people.
This film should charm music and cinema lovers alike with its true and vital story. We have 3 copies to give away this time around, and here’s how you enter to win!
