#Nigeria: EBROHIMIE ROAD: A MUSEUM OF MEMORY — New Documentary Explores Wole Soyinka's Historic Residence, Shot by Tunde Kelani (Trailer)

From the OlongoAfrica platform comes an intriguing concept of a documentary titled "Ebrohimie Road: A Museum of Memory," which explores how a seemingly ordinary house can hold extraordinary significance within the broader narrative of a nation.

The house was Nobel Laureate Wọlé Ṣóyínká's residence on the University of Ibadan campus, during the Nigerian Civil War (1967-1970).

More than just a structure, the house was a silent witness to pivotal moments in Ṣóyínká's life during those years, and by extension, the concurrent cultural and political upheavals in Nigeria.

In 1967, Ṣóyínká was arrested at this very house shortly after returning from a trip to Biafra, where he had gone in a personal attempt to mediate the escalating Civil War.

The house hosted many of Ṣóyínká’s friends, family, and associates during his confinement and in the years that followed.

Written and produced by Nigerian scholar Kọ́lá Túbọ̀sún, the film, which peels back the layers of social, political, and literary history tied to the house, features interviews with several notables like Femi Euba, Folabo Ajayi-Ṣóyínká (his sister), Ṣóyínká’s daughters (Moremi and Peyibomi), and of course Ṣóyínká himself.

Cinematography is by Tunde Kelani (yes, the Tunde Kelani).

Kelani also produces alongside Jide Bello and Olajide Salawu.

The project is supported by grants from the Open Society Foundation and Sterling Bank Nigeria.

"Ebrohimie Road: A Museum of Memory" has July 2024 screenings scheduled for Lagos, (Nigeria); London (UK); and New York (USA): https://t.co/DOFY7UZOwu

Physical media is almost a Fahrenheit 451 (where people memorized entire books and thus became the book they loved) level of responsibility. If you own a great 4K HD, Blu-ray, DVD etc etc of a film or films you love... you are the custodian of those films for generations to come.

Wow! This is so good. Barack Obama knows exactly what to say, every damn time.

He taps into the struggle we are experiencing in society & in politics with culture wars, diversity and inclusion and the dangers ahead — unless we find a way to live & let live.

“It’s easier for people to agree on stuff when the majority of people look the same, worship the same way & share the same traditions. It’s harder as societies become more diverse, and everybody is at the table.”

Worth really taking in.
