Показать описание
In Nigeria, Olu was made to speak English over Yoruba, his first language. Now, as a filmmaker in the Midwest, he navigates the complexities of Black identity in America, while drawing comfort from South Asian flavors that evoke memories of home.

"Four Strangers" gathers a group of expatriates for a social soirée that sparks unexpected connections and insights. Each episode explores their unique stories, cultural challenges, and the shared experiences of life as newcomers to the Midwest.

"Four Strangers" is funded by the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund and the citizens of Minnesota.

Olu gave a good account of a typical Nigeria-born and the way he switches the Yoruba typical dialect to English is 👌

Olu always so genuine. Most humble person I know, and anyone who knows him will say the same. From a Nigerian to another Nigerian- he's speaking facts.
