In today's episode Laurence speaks with Godwin Josiah, one member of The Critics Company; a group of young filmmakers in Nigeria.

Last year they gained global recognition for their work on the short film Z: The Beginning which went viral mainly due to the skills they showed in creating visual effects on a very low budget.

Laurence and Godwin discuss filmmaking and the effects Covid-19 is having on Nigera.

This interview was recorded on April 26th.
