The 2021 edition of the Sundance Film Festival has proven to be a good one for European short films, with almost all of the awards in the festival’s short film section going to European productions and co-productions.
The winner of the Grand Jury Prize was UK film
Lizard by
Akinola Davies Jr. Backed by BBC Films and production company Potboiler Films, the film is set in Lagos and follows a little girl who – after being thrown out of her Sunday School lesson – wanders around the grounds of a ‘mega church’. There, she witnesses the duplicity at the heart of those who claim religious piety, while a later violent event exposes the schism between the haves and have-nots. With a hint of magical realism, the film is a pointed examination of the various hypocrisies that lay at the heart of the adult word as well as a vibrant exploration of aspects of Nigerian life, all told through a child’s point of view.
