Whoever wants to be useful, even with bound hands can do a lot of good.

We shared a review of Odunayo Odedoyin’s 5 Away from 40. Set in Ibadan, the film briefly explores the sense of urgency Nigerian Women often face concerning settling into matrimonial life. ✍️ @goldenhenshaw nocturnafilm.substack.com/p/…

The end of an era and the beginning of another. Can't wait for this session. I never can.
For the final session of the season, The Library will be peeling back the layers of unreliable narratives, weaving through the texts, films, and philosophies we've explored—including a discussion of Ari Aster’s surreal odyssey, Beau Is Afraid. Invitation only. Truth... optional.
