Award-winning actor, director, and writer Mugambi Nthiga joins Lilly for an episode all about the movies. Following the Oscar nominations, Lilly and Mugambi talk about their favorite films of 2022, the celebration of films such as blockbuster and diaspora-inspired Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, and the apparent snubs of The Woman King and Nope. They also explore the importance (if any) of institutions such as The Academy for the African film industry and how the creative industries - and audiences - on the continent can continue to empower filmmakers in the industry. Mugambi shares the process of creation - and the lasting impact - of two films he co-wrote, Kati Kati and Supa Modo, that were Kenya's submissions to the Oscars in 2017 and 2018, respectively. Mugambi highlights the priceless value and impact the arts have in society and why it's important to continue to produce art that pushes forward cultural-shifting conversations.
