O Cristal Encantado
Slave Master (voice)
Há muitos e muitos anos numa terra longínqua, O Cristal Encantado era a fonte da verdade no universo. Mas ele foi partido, gerando o caos e originando duas raças: os terríveis Skeksis e os pacíficos Mystics. Segundo uma velha profecia, tudo voltará ao normal se o Cristal for restaurado por um ser da raça Gelfling, quando os três sóis se alinharem numa grande conjunção. O problema é que os Skeksis se apossaram do poder do cristal, e pretendem reinar para sempre. Para evitar que a profecia seja cumprida, tentaram acabar com os Gelflings. Mas ainda resta Jen, e é a ele que cabe a tarefa de reestabelecer o equilíbrio.
Cry Freedom
Balogun's most political film is a confrontation with the African wars of liberation. Based on Carcase for Hounds, Meja Mwangi's novel about the Mau-Mau uprising, it is set in an unnamed country and thus offers the vision of a pan-African struggle for freedom and against colonial oppression. The central figures in the straightforwardly and powerfully told story are the guerrilla leader Haraka and his adversary, the English colonial official Kingsley. In the end, the film becomes a homage to the freedom fighters from all over Africa: the final images show Patrice Lumumba, Steve Biko, Nelson Mandela and Amílcar Cabral, among others.
