Synopsis

Kongo lives in Brussels, in the Matongé district on which he is writing a book. His editor wants a kind of traveler's book spiced with ethnic ingredients.{{Cite web|url=https://www.africanfilmny.org/2012/juju-factory/|title=Juju Factory|date=2012-06-21|website=African Film Festival, Inc.|language=en-US|access-date=2019-07-04}} However, the writer is inspired by the vision of the complex and tormented souls that he meets everywhere, night and day. Kongo Congo follows invisible threads connected to Congolese history and its ghosts. How is it possible to hold on in this chaotic history? By having juju, self-confidence, and Beatrice's love.{{Cite web|url=http://africultures.com/juju-factory-4517/|title=Juju Factory|last=Barlet|first=Olivier|author-link=Olivier Barlet|date=2006-06-29|website=Africultures|language=fr-FR|access-date=2019-07-04}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.riverfronttimes.com/stlouis/juju-factory/Film?oid=2712376|title=Juju Factory|website=Riverfront Times|language=en|access-date=2019-07-04}}
