These films established him as a distinctive voice in African cinema, gaining recognition at international festivals. In 2019, he released two acclaimed works: the essay documentary Mother, I Am Suffocating. This Is My Last Film About You and the feature This Is Not a Burial, It’s a Resurrection. The latter won a Special Jury Award for Visionary Filmmaking at Sundance. His 2025 film Ancestral Visions of the Future premiered at the Berlinale, continuing his exploration of memory, heritage, and resilience.
