Beautiful Performance, Beautiful Film.
5 November 2022
Elesin Oba was a beautiful adaptation of Wole Soyinka's play. I was impressed with the way they stuck to the source material and presented it as a stage play. The way they chose to tell the story was distinctive and rare but it was also the best way possible. Music being an important aspect of Yoruba culture was really shown here too. It's evident in the way they accompanied all the scenes from the beginning till the end with music was 😍😍😍And the performances from the cast was breathtaking. Everyone brought their A Game and I am glad Biyi Bandele was able to create this masterpiece before his passing. May he forever RIP.
