Storyline
Featured review
Be a guinea fowl
The funeral traditions of a Zambian family reveal deep-rooted divisions, with the deceased's family on one side and the wife's family on the other. This rift leads to various comical and exaggerated situations. From the outset, it's clear that the deceased man was not a good person, but the prevailing sentiment is one of indifference due to his passing,nothing can be changed now.
Enter the guinea fowl, a creature known in the wild for its role in alerting other animals to nearby predators. This serves as a metaphor within the story: just as the guinea fowl sounds the alarm to protect others, we too have a responsibility to speak out against wrongdoing. Failing to do so perpetuates the cycle of abuse.
Despite its simplicity, the story carries an important message and is worth telling.
