Uncle Cankle and the Dancing Ankle

A film following the elderly Cankle Chiyembekezo, a once skilled dancer suffering from undiagnosed arthritis. Unable to cope with his rapid deterioration, Cankle shuts himself off from the world. The majority of the film was destroyed in a bombing raid during the Sudanese civil war, only 12 minutes of footage remain.
