So, 'NGO (Beninese Solidarity with Endangered Westerners)' is quite a contemplative piece. Hazoumè digs into the often overlooked dynamics between local communities in Benin and the multitude of NGOs that set up shop there. The tone is both critical and introspective, making you ponder the real impacts of foreign aid and local perceptions of wealth. The pacing feels deliberate, letting the themes of immigration and economic disparity breathe. It’s not your typical documentary – there’s a certain rawness to it. The visuals are impactful, often emphasizing the stark contrasts in lifestyles. Hazoumè's approach raises questions rather than providing answers, which is what makes it stand out. It's definitely a film that lingers with you long after viewing.
