INTENTION
This film resides in the coming-of-age genre, which is a spiritual rite of passage that we all can relate to. While Vagabonds will most certainly take its place in the halls of Italian neorealist cinema, we wish to give it a mystical African twist. One that allows the African view of art and spirituality to permeate through and invoke a spiritual participation with the audience rather than simply create a critical or analytical attitude towards a relevant social issue. At the heart of Ghanaian culture, there are mystical undertones that also exist within the margins and we feel this journey is the perfect narrative vehicle to allow that style to flourish. For now, we've branded it as Afro-mystic realism. It is a style, which presupposes that beyond this visible world, there is an invisible world striving to manifest itself. Furthermore, that nature, cultish remnants of the past, and a radical youth carry with them an energy that can transcend mundane economic realities, national borders, and various colors of the skin to become something more and to impose an ideology that captures a truth of the human condition: that we are all Vagabonds.
