An ode to the mundanity and madness of the high street, told through the window of an african hair salon. It’s the everyday antics of a bustling high street.

John Ogunmuyiwa is an award-winning nigerian- born london-bred filmmaker who works in both documentary and fiction. His work draws upon a constant questioning of what it means to be normal. Using daily observations as a base, he tends to bring a tinge of surrealism into his work, all with the aim of telling untold stories from a different perspective.
