The Legend of the Vagabond of Lagos is the latest production of the Nigerian Agbajowo Collective. The film tells the story of Jawu (Temiloluwa Ami-Williams), a woman who must decide whether to save herself or defend her community while being threatened by corrupt government and violent hitmen. The film addresses the harsh reality of the so-called waterfront communities in Lagos, floating slums whose existence is threatened by the greed of politicians and investors. Jawu, who lives in a world where prosperity determines survival, is faced with the choice of using money for her own dreams or as a weapon against the oppressors. This is how Jawu begins her transformation from a slum-fighter to a potential leader of the resistance. The Legend of the Vagabond of Lagos presents itself as a socially critical manifesto. The film is set in 2017 and mourns the dissolution of the Otodo-Gbame settlement. However, the political circumstances of the story are depicted as a mystical tale of resistance. This project is more than just a feature film; it is a call for solidarity and action. The Agbajowo Collective brings a message of resistance and hope to the world by highlighting the voices of the oppressed. The film celebrated its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival, where it was a part of the Oficial Program.
