My Father's Shadow
The UK’s Best International Feature Film entry to the 98th Academy Awards and recipient of the Caméra d’Or Special Mention at Cannes and Best Director at the British Independent Film Awards, Akinola Davis Jr.‘s <i>My Father's Shadow</i> is a poetic, tender portrait of father-son bonds. Framed by the political landscape of 1993 Lagos, the film follows a father and his two young sons as they journey into and around the vibrantly rendered Nigerian metropolis, quietly reckoning with their relationship while navigating a city on the precipice of democratic crisis. Brothers and collaborators Akinola Davis Jr. and Wale Davies bring us a groundbreaking feature debut – centering an award-winning performance by Sopé Dìrísù (<i>Slow Horses</i>, <i>Gangs of London</i>) – that reveals the profound depths of what families leave unspoken.DramaPT1H33M12A2026-02-06Ṣọpẹ́ Dìrísù
