Iku Aka

In a film written, directed, filmed, and produced by a crew of all Black women including three of Nigerian-American descent, Chinelo approaches what should be one of the happiest days of her life: her wedding. Her soon-to-be fiance must complete Iku Aka, the first stage of cultural marriage in Igbo land, by asking her mother for her hand in marriage. Out of respect for tradition, Chinelo’s mother appoints her uncle, Festus, to speak on the family’s behalf as the eldest and most successful man—but he also is a man who sexually assaulted Chinelo when she was young. The confrontation forces her down a rabbit hole of memories, compelling her to face the deficiencies of tradition.

_____ in Paris

We lived a secret life, hidden from your husband--a romance of furtive meetings and a future eternally postponed. We stole a week to be together in France; I still could never film us directly, but in the textures and details of the city, I captured the tragic absences of our affair, infinite in the shadows, impossible in the open. Years later, I found these grainy old videotapes--faded like memory, feelings raw but transformed--and composed a love letter to who we once were, what we could’ve been.
