Viva Riva!

Year: 2010
Country: Democratic Republic of the Congo, France, Belgium
Tagline: Kinshasa is calling
Plot: Riva is an operator, a man with charm and ambition in equal measure. Kinshasa is an inviting place. With petrol in short supply in DRC's capital, he and his sidekick pursue a plot to get hold of a secret cache - barrels of fuel they can sell for a huge profit. Of course they're not the only ones who want the stuff. Cesar is a ruthless, sharply dressed foreigner thriving in Kinshasa's lawless streets. A female military officer joins the fray. Even the church will betray its tenets for a piece of the action. But Riva's main nemesis is Azor, a crime boss in the classic style: big, decadent and brutal. He's not a man to mess with, but his girlfriend, Nora, may just be the most seductive woman in all of DRC. Riva catches sight of her dancing at a nightclub and it's not long before Nora matches the fuel cache as a coveted object of his lust.With the Democratic Republic of Congo suffering from a gasoline shortage, criminal Riva comes back home with gasoline stolen from his sometime employer, Cesar. Determined to use his new wealth to have a good time, Riva hits the town with longtime friend J.M. At a club, Riva meets gorgeous Nora and steals her away from her gangster boyfriend, Azor. With both Cesar and Azor after him, Riva struggles to stay alive.
