⭐️THE ANS SUNSET FINAL EDITION
LINE UP -

‘Him & I’ by Jason C. Nwachukwu - Set a week after a difficult confrontation, a mother and son sit with the aftermath of their conversation, questioning what their relationship truly means. With a delicate, intimate approach to family and identity, the film captures the beauty and tension found in everyday moments between loved ones.

‘Can a Brother Get Some Peace?’ by Audrey Damier - A cinematic exploration of Black boyhood and manhood, this short reimagines young Black men not as threats but as vulnerable individuals navigating trauma, resilience, and friendship. Through quiet moments and layered dialogue, the film reflects on the emotional weight many carry while seeking peace in a world shaped by systemic pressures. This marks Damier’s directorial debut — a powerful collaboration with Yvonne Shelling and the launch of their collective, Stolen Greatness.

Catch both films at Rich Mix Cinema, London on Saturday 29th November as part of our final ANS Sunset Screening of the year.

High Tide 🌊🌊

What an experience it was bringing a personal story to life based on the Igbo Landing. I had the pleasure of working with an amazing cast and crew at the wonderful @southlondontheatre that gave us the platform to share this story.

Thanks to everyone who showed love and support, it means so much that you were part of the journey!
