Sita-Bella, The First

An anonymous grave between those of her parents, a dilapidated cinema hall within the Ministry of Arts and Culture—these are the remaining signs of Sita Bella’s presence on earth. Yet, she was the first female journalist, the first airline pilot in Cameroon, and one of Africa’s pioneering filmmakers. This film pays tribute to this exceptional woman.
