Mbière, His Majesty

by Mama Njikam Mbouobouo

CAMEROON, France - 2020 - 59 MINUTES

synopsis

The Sultan, King of the Bamouns Ibrahim Mbombo Njoya is the 19th King of the Nchare Yen dynasty. Every two years, during the Nguon feast, his people freely judge him about his management of the Kingdom. He is stripped of all his attributes as a king and faces criticism with humility. His Majesty is also a senator and sits in the Upper House of the Cameroonian Parliament. This double personality is not to the taste of all Bamouns. This film is an immersion in the life of the Bamouns and, in particular, that of the King during the organization of the next edition of the Nguon and the municipal and senatorial elections.
