Reply to comment by amoranic in We are a Filmmaking Collective from Nigeria, It took us 3 years to make a short film inspired by Yoruba mythology and we got Morgan Freeman involved. Ask Us Anything! by thecritics001

Some Nigerian films we can recommend are: 1. Juju Stories: This is an anthology by the surreal 16 collective 2. King of Boys (the first film and the next installment which is a series ) are available on Netflix, directed by Kemi Adetiba, 3. Eyimofe directed by Ari and Chuko Esiri, 4. O town directed by C.J Fiery 5. Lionheart directed by Genevieve Nnaji 6. The lost okoroshi by Abba T. Makama, 7. La femme Anjola by Mildred Okwo

​

Most of these films are available on streaming platforms like Netflix or Amazon Prime.

We hope this was helpful

If you are still there, one more question. Is it common to mix Yoruba and English in everyday language ?

Yes it is common to mix both languages together. We have a language derivative of English called pidgin, it sounds like English if you listen closely but it’s broken. It’s spoken in other countries in West Africa.
