Upcoming Year-Round Screenings
MKO (2026)
Moshood Abiola wins Nigeria's freest election, only for the military to jail him. When U.S. diplomats arrive to negotiate his release, he is served tea, and dies. MKO unravels the cover-up behind one of Africa's most consequential political crimes.
In 1993, Abiola, the world’s richest Black man, won a landslide victory that the military swiftly annulled. What followed was years of imprisonment, international negotiation and, ultimately, a death that has never been fully explained.
The investigation draws on extraordinary access on all sides of the story: current and former Nigerian presidents, Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka, Abiola’s family and the U.S. delegate who was in the room when he died.

We, The Hated (2026)
Told through the lives and motivations of those on the frontline, We, the Hated turns its camera on the people behind one of the most polarising protest movements in recent memory.
What emerges goes deeper than placards and road blocks: these are individuals who have weighed up the personal consequences of action against the existential stakes of inaction. With fossil fuels driving both the climate crisis and global conflict, and governments increasingly cracking down on dissent, the film raises urgent questions about protest, power and what democracy actually means in practice.
Director Rich Felgate, who is in a relationship with one of Just Stop Oil's co-founders, brings an insider closeness to the story whilst retaining enough balance to speak to audiences well beyond the already converted.
Thursday 12th November, 18:20 - Bertha DocHouse, London
