Please join us for “National Diploma,” the third Tournees feature in a series on ‘Strong Female Lead.’ Sarah Kennedy will introduce this film, which focuses on the DR Congo’s national baccalaureate exam. It can save a young person from a life of manual labor and open the doors to university and a career. To fail the exam is to be fated to struggle for survival through menial work. As Congolese filmmaker Dieudo Hamadi’s documentary “National Diploma” so powerfully shows, the path to success in the national exam is full of challenges.
