• Summary:"United States of Africa follows African hip hop pioneer Didier Awadi as he crafts an album that pays tribute to the great black revolutionary leaders. His musical journey takes him to some 40 countries and results in a profound meditation on the power of music and the need for political change. A hopeful and compelling portrait of a continent whose politically aware youth is refusing to accept the role of victim, the film is a call for Africans to rise up, take a stand and take control, of their continent and their destiny"--Container.
  
• Notes:Includes additional videos and Awadi's album Présidents d'Afrique.
