Esi the Brave
Esi ist ein mutiges ghanaisches Mädchen, das Monster, Geister und alles liebt, was in der Nacht Geräusche macht. Als ihre Familie zum Kakamotobi-Festival geht — einer lebhaften Maskeradenfeier in Winneba, Ghana — besteht Esi darauf, dass sie vor nichts Angst hat. Doch als die maskierten Tänzer sie umzingeln und sie von Mama und Papa getrennt wird, muss Esi echten Mut finden, um sich den wirbelnden Monstern zu stellen und ihre Eltern zurückzufordern. Eine fröhliche Feier der Tapferkeit, ghanaischer Feste und des Moments, in dem ein Kind entdeckt, was es wirklich bedeutet, mutig zu sein.
