Felicite
Description
The protagonist is trying to escape from the socio-economic and cultural system that impedes the independence of women in sub-Saharan Africa. She fights for her place, avoids stalkers and takes the reins of her life as she pleases. She left her son's father a strong woman, although she would lose the pulse of the Congolese health system. His stamina collapses when Samo, his son, needs surgery to save his leg after a motorcycle failure. Desperate to receive money that allows medical intervention, Felice faces her and her pride.

[Véro Tshanda] Beya is an unvarnished talent, but she holds the scenario together through the sheer force of her presence
