“Go ye afar, go teach all nations” is a missionary hymn that urges one to travel to distant lands and liberate peoples through the Gospel. Christian iconography surrounds and pervades the taxi of the protagonist in Go Ye Afar, highlighting the connection between Ireland and Nigeria as former British colonies, both shaped by a political history of colonialism and religion. As in his previous work, Few Can See (winner of a Special Mention by the Official Jury at FILMADRID X), Frank Sweeney constructs a screenplay—this time co-written with Beulah Ezeugo—based on oral history, drawing from conversations and interviews he has held with Nigerian-Irish taxi drivers throughout his life. Between Dublin and Calabar lies a shared history that is seldom discussed; here, their streets are connected via a transatlantic journey which, though anchored in fantasy, speaks of a very real past and present. Archival footage thus engages in a dialogue with this seemingly supernatural environment, which in turn references classic Hollywood techniques (such as rear projection), reflecting on how certain historical-political dynamics have been reproduced in and through the filmic image. Sweeney offers another potent exercise in historical revisionism and, simultaneously, the appropriation of cinematic forms. Life and cinema in perpetual motion. Daniela Urzola
