We're joined by writer
Leila Latif to discuss
His House (2020), the feature film debut by Remi Weekes. The first part of the episode is
spoiler free, and from 0:02
0:44 we will go into a spoilerific discussion.
The film centers on refugee couple Bol and Rial, who make a harrowing escape from war-torn South Sudan, but then struggle to adjust to their new life in an English town that has an evil lurking beneath the surface.
His House is streaming on Netflix now.
Digressions include Ṣọpẹ Dìrísù's arms, Wunmi Mosaku's sheer talent, privilege, unseasoned food and our own immigrant experience.
