Our take

A contemporary example of Ghanain popular cinema, Keteke takes the form of an energetic journey premised on a missed train, a stranded couple, and imminent childbirth. As much a sparky road movie as a dynamic couples comedy, this is a film made up of bad decisions, arguments, and reconciliations.
