HONME
VR | Benin, South Africa | 2025 | 20m
European Premiere
Honme is a VR experience that makes you embody the spirit of King Béhanzin, entrusted with blessing royal relics for the enthronement of one of his descendants. As you navigate the sacred palace, you witness the blending of past and present, where once stolen artifacts regain their power, and the inner voice of King Béhanzin, full of nostalgia, guides your steps. The journey unveils a forgotten legacy, restoring the kingdom's soul and ensuring its rightful successor ascends the throne.
