Description

A phone call in the morning sets off a chain of events that leads to a man's return home after 26 years abroad. He finds his homeland unrecognizable and embarks on a quest to find his dying brother, navigating a complex web of phantoms, guides, and bureaucrats along the way. As he searches for answers, he encounters a cast of characters who will lead him closer to the truth - or further into the unknown. With its unique blend of existential crisis, tragic farce, and slapstick tragedy, Hangman is a deeply personal and strangely honest story about one man's pursuit of refuge in a world that seems determined to elude him. Maya Binyam's assured debut is both an existential journey and a poignant exploration of the human condition.
