“A vivid depiction of fierce resistance.” – Variety
Premiering at Toronto International Film Festival in 2024, this film emerges from a directors’ collective based in Lagos, Nigeria, turning lived experience of forced eviction into a gripping work of fiction.
Since its premiere, the film has gone on to screen for audiences across the world, winning 13 international festival awards. Mathew Cerf, a member of the film’s director collective and a longtime visitor to the Methow Valley, will be in attendance for a Q&A after the Tuesday, March 24th screening.
