Coconut Head Generation

Every Thursday, a group of students from the University of Ibadan—the oldest in Nigeria—organizes a film club, transforming a small amphitheater into a political agora where young people refine their vision and develop a critical voice. “Coconut Head Generation,” a scornful expression to designate a stubborn and brainless youth, takes on a whole new meaning when the students turn this stigma around, reclaiming their freedom of thought. Director Alain Kassanda’s empathetic portrait captures passionate students debating politics, gender, and the future of their nation.
