Mwana is a brave young girl who lives in a village, deep in the forest. Every day, a giant monster comes and steals the villagers’ food. When Mwana proposes confronting the giant, the Village Chief wonders how such a little girl could defeat a monster that no one has ever been able to stop. Is there a secret that only Mwana knows?
Spun from a traditional African tale, and told by Canadian and Congolese artists, this theatrical journey of courage, love and friendship explores the French proverb “We often need someone smaller than ourselves ”.
