Dramaan is the most popular man in Colobane, but when a woman from his past, now exorbitantly wealthy, returns to the town, things begin to change.
Where to Watch Hyenas
- VarunOctober 19, 2024A really effective drama about post-colonialism, consumerism, corruption, revenge, power and the fragility of value systems in the face of massive inequality. The actor who played Dramaan was so magnetic in his performance. Ramatou was cold af, especially with that one line she dropped, “The world made a whore of me, now I turn the world into a whorehouse.” I think a lot of people hate hyenas because they don’t like seeing their own greed reflected back at them. This was my first time watching a movie in the Wolof language and found it to be a powerful experience.
