In 1988, the celebrated Nigerian novelist, poet, and critic Chinua Achebe, published an essay with the title An Image of Africa, the seminal text is a critique of a certain gaze upon Africa as “the other world.”

In this dance film Qudus Onikeku takes us on a choreographic journey in a parallel conversation with Chinua Achebe, as they both paint for us an image of Africa through dance, music, and storytelling.
