FREEDOM

This film charts the experiences of colonization across the African continent with specific attention to the West African nation of Nigeria. FREEDOM shows specific roads towards self-determined leadership, collaboration across ethnic and class lines, and how political independence is an arduous struggle that could not be possible without the community-centered power of the people.
