West Africa

Trumslag, baobabskugga, sånger på marknadsdagen

Drum circles at sunset, baobab trees taller than any building, grandmothers carrying the family history in their voices. West African stories are alive — they want to be told out loud.

Uncle Kwame

Mimi, a tiny and soft echo in a wide green valley, feels lonely because sounds always fade after she repeats them. She journeys across the valley, trying to match the loud roar of Bolu, the fast chatter of Ayo, and the sweet melody of Femi before finally finding Mama Titi, a beetle whose steady hum welcomes Mimi's voice and stays with her.
