Best Of IQMF 2023: All The Colours In The World Are Between Black And White

Bambino and Bawa meet in Lagos and hit it off immediately. During their long trips around the city they develop a deep affection for each other. But in a society which considers homosexuality taboo, they feel the pressure of social norms. With All the Colours of the World Are Between Black and White, Nigerian filmmaker Babatunde Apalowo delivers glowing, independent queer cinema. His moving feature debut deliberately resists cruelty and taboos.

All the Colours of the World are between Black and White is the winner of the prestigious Teddy Award at Berlinale. We selected the film as best-of-selection of our 2023 edition.
