I NEED TO TALK TO GOD (2023) COMMISIONED BY APPLE STUDIOS
Inspired by James Baldwin’s Esquire essay ‘Dark Days’ in which the writer, in a Hughesian manner, ponders ‘What happens (…) when a reality finds itself on a collision course with a fantasy?’ I Need To Talk To God explores race, migration, culture shock and interiority. Through vignettes which serve as peepholes into our protagonist's memories and fantasies, these non-linear visuals touch on the internal turmoil many young men of colour who migrate to the West face and the emotional hangover from this experience that occasionally rears its head in the form of rage.
