E BE SO!

Overview

A filmmaker visits Nigeria for the first time since his parents’ emigration 22 years prior and reflects on the Nigerian 1993 election crisis, colonial history, and repatriation. Adapted from a multi-channel video thesis installation, the experimental essay film engages Yoruba oral traditions through archival materials and autobiographical narration, questioning Nigeria's past, present, and speculative future with an Afrobeat score.
