Riva is a small time operator who has just returned to his hometown of Kinshasa, Congo after a decade away with a major score: a fortune in hijacked gasoline. Wads of cash in hand and out for a good time, Riva is soon entranced by beautiful night club denizen Nora, the kept woman of a local gangster. Into the mix comes an Angolan crime lord relentlessly seeking the return of his stolen shipment of gasoline. Director Djo Tunda Wa Munga's Kinshasa is a seductively vibrant, lawless, fuel-starved sprawl of shantytowns, gated villas, bordellos and nightclubs and Riva is its perfect embodiment.

An interesting peek into the life in the Congo. But for me, this peek was incomprehensible and difficult to digest. It’s definitely an interesting movie, but it’s definitely not something I would choose to watch next time. Brutality, aggression and cruel reality all in one film make for a quite challenging watching experience.
