→ Shown with short film: Nosophobia
Set during the current Sudanese civil war, aKash is a sharply comic love story about Adnan, a young fighter torn between his girlfriend Lina and his treasured rifle. When he fails to return to his unit, a military roundup is launched, and the film slips into a mischievous chase narrative that satirizes martial masculinity without trivializing the stakes of conflict. Koka mobilizes slapstick timing, affectionate irony, and moments of lyrical quiet to expose how war scripts desire, loyalty, and a masculine self-image. Rather than heroic posturing, the film offers vulnerability, contradiction, and the absurd texture of life under militarization. Akasha stands out for the way it disarms the rhetoric of war through humor while preserving emotional and political complexity.
