PosterWhen The Heart Says Yes
Sesekou Mbeng owes his success to his friend Ni Sama, who on his dying bed reminds Sesekou of their agreement some years back to have their children (Besong and Becky) united in marriage. Besong instead meets and falls in love with Barbara (a blind girl). How does Sesekou take this? Will he allow his son, Besong, to marry a blind girl and bring shame to his chiefdom?
 
In this film, by Ashu Egbe, the rich cultures of Manyu  Division and the North West Region and a love story are used to evoke social issues like adoption, physical blindness and sickle cell disease.
 
Quand le coeur dit oui
Sesekou Mbeng doit sa réussite à son ami Ni Sama qui, à l’article de la mort, tient à lui rappeler l’engagement qu’ils ont pris quelques années auparavant de voir leurs enfants (Besong at Becky) s’unir par les liens du mariage. A l’inverse, Besong tombe amoureux de Barbara (fille aveugle). Quelle sera la réaction de Sesekou ? Va-t-il laisser son fils Besong épouser une aveugle au risque de faire honte à son village ?
 
Ce film de Ashu Egbe s’inspire d'une histoire d'amour et des richesses culturelles camerounaises du département de la Manyu et de la région du Nord Ouest pour évoquer ces questions sociales que sont l’adoption, le handicap visuel et la drépanocytose.
