This film is the first in a trilogy by Zimbabwean artist Kudzanai Chiurai. Iyeza, Creation (2012), and Moyo (2013) consider and confront how Christianity has been used to support and expand European colonialism in Africa over the last three centuries. Iyeza uses Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic Last Supper as a compositional and historical framing device, replacing the disciples with contemporary African figures who move in hypnotic and almost painful slow-motion as a rhythmic soundtrack plays.
