Les Saignantes (2005, Cameroon) by Jean-Pierre Bekolo - cranefly - 06-06-2021
Watched on Criterion. Also available on Kanopy as The Bloodettes.
A pair of supernatural lesbian call girls tangle with corrupt government officials.
Jean-Pierre Bekolo instills this Afro-feminist sci-fi satire with a whole lot of style. I'm not sure I followed how everything connected together, but this is filled with some great camerwork and editing and a whole lot of eye candy. And it's got a great soundtrack, though it might get a tad overused in the late going.
Next best thing to watching a movie titled Sanguineous, which I was going to say doesn't exist. But there might be a Portuguese one made in 2019 (likely straight to video, if even that).

Sanguineous is the U.K. title of DM & the Yeti.
cf - your reviews need a trailer...or at the very least, a poster.
