Living true to its title, Disco Boy delivers a psychedelic spectacle for both eyes and ears. Music by Vitalic

After a painful journey through Europe, Aleksei played by Franz Rogowski, an illegal Belarusian immigrant in Paris joins the French Foreign Legion so he can legalize his stay. In the Niger Delta, Jomo played by Morr Ndiaye struggles against the oil companies threatening his village and the lives of his family. One day, at the head of an armed group, he kidnaps French nationals, a commando of the Foreign Legion intervenes, led by Aleksei. The destinies of Aleksei and Jomo will merge and continue across borders, bodies, life and death.

Review:

The Guardian: “This is bold film-making: a movie that wants to dazzle you with its standalone set pieces, but also to carry you along with its storytelling.”

The New York Times: “This feature debut from the Italian director Giacomo Abbruzzese takes on ordinary people trying to free themselves from the bonds of their homelands”
