Film-maker and theatre-maker Adura Onashile has created sublimely beautiful and tender works of art in her short film "Expensive Shit" and her first feature film "Girl".
In our conversation we explore Adura’s vision of "Girl" as a meditation on the love between Grace and Ama, as mother and daughter. We also discuss navigating the creation and collaborative process, art as communication, the importance of names and putting your work out into the world.
Enjoy the conversation :-)
