Kosi Dasi
by Shepsu Aakhu
directed by Shepsu Aakhu
The lives of young couple No Eyes and Diata are changed forever as each must accept sacrifice in the name of community, family and spiritual beliefs. A coming-of-age story told through African storytelling, African and Indian dance, and Brazilian and Asian combat styles, Kosi Dasa examines the values and cultures that bind a community and the divine implications therein.
