Included is his first video work as an artist, A Day in Mido(2001), a 15 minute video observation of one apartment block for a day. Also featured is his most recent video work, Kigali, into the Night (2016), filmed in Rwanda. The informal screening will include plenty of time for casual conversation, discussions with the artist, and popcorn.
