00:00Thank you so much for joining us.
00:36The idea has probably been buried in my subconsciousness for the longest time.
00:41I know how important it is for stories to travel.
00:44I know how important it is for culture to travel.
00:48And I just felt that we needed to have a destination point to where this culture could travel to.
00:57And that's really what got me started on this journey.
01:31We have consumed so much of the world.
01:35How much of the world has consumed us?
01:37And I'm not waiting anymore for anyone to take a six-hour trip from London to understand what it is
01:45to watch a Nigerian film,
01:47to watch a Nigerian film or to see Nigerian fashion and so on and so forth.
01:51It's right here in London.
01:53Ten years from now, we shouldn't be here saying this is the first black cinema, which it is.
01:59Ten years from now, it should just be there's another cinema.
02:01There should be several others, you know, opening.
02:05So cinemas, you know, culture hubs, food, fashion, art, bringing it all together, absolutely.
