« The name of the collective, drawn from a Yoruba proverb, refers to a sense of collective responsibility in creating change ». (Olivia Popp, Cineuropa)
« The product of radical collaboration at every stage of development and production, The Legend of the Vagabond Queen of Lagos represents the culmination of a seven-year journey to expose the ways poverty is criminalized to excuse unjust police raids and the destruction of entire communities. Alternating in tone between terse thriller, documentary-like observation, and wondrous magical realism, this gorgeously rendered film is a vibrant portrait of people struggling to protect their community and the place they call home. » NATALEAH HUNTER-YOUNG (TIFF 2024, Toronto).
