Is that how you see it

Among other things,
Borga plays with the themes of globalisation and cycles. The Agbogbloshie electronic waste dump is based on the unbridled disposal of Western electronic waste. So in a way,
Borga begins in Ghana as well as in Germany. And the film ends for me, albeit in a very different way, also in Ghana and in Germany. But this is only the thematic frame of the story. At its core,
Borga is about a young man who seeks recognition from his family, especially his brother and father. To achieve this, he takes his fate into his own hands, makes mistakes and learns. He engages in self-empowerment, so to speak.
