Kings of the Water

Cast
Cyprien Tokoudagba

Crew
Directed by Philip Haas


Cyprien Tokoudagba paints sacred temples in Abomey, a once-royal city in the West African republic of Benin. In KINGS OF THE WATER, director Philip Haas follows Cyprien's process through three brilliantly colored projects and, finally, a ceremony to open a new temple. The film is an incredible journey through West African art, religion, and passion for one man's craftsmanship.
