Co-directors Justyna Obasi and Arinzechukwu Patrick explore youth culture in Ghana with a study of identity and addiction, hidden within a skate film. Community is as much about shared otherness as it is cultural connection, and romanticizing youth culture only tells us a fraction of the collective story of those within it. Co-directed by Justyna Obasi and Arinzechukwu Patrick, new short Relapse is a skate film where the skating is just a scratch on the surface – a real-life character study, poised as a snapshot of Accra’s skate community.
