Regions with significant Aguda populations include Lagos, Abeokuta, Ibadan, Calabar and Port Harcourt. The Agudas in Lagos built and designed the Brazilian Quarters which still stands today (although it risks being demolished and is not in good condition). The buildings resemble the baroque style that was popular in Brazil in the 19th century. This film was commissioned by 20 Stories High and is part of a collective of work commissioned from Black local creatives under the name "Black with a Capital B".
