Inspired by true events, Vaya interweaves three separate plots, that intersect and intertwine in a gripping, deeply moving and often funny narrative about struggling for survival and dignity in the big city of Johannesburg. This electrifying drama from Nigerian director Akin Omotoso is a masterful synthesis of big-city anxieties and aspirations and creates a gripping yet compassionate portrait of small town characters immersed in the intimidating, alluring, and dangerous urban world.
