DO NOT whistle at night is the first of a 12 episodes short-film anthology series (5 minutes per episode) that reimagines African taboos many of us grew up with – now staged in contemporary Europe. Exploring how far these taboos transcend Africa to the rest of the world and how other cultures have the same, similar or different taboos.
Each episode centers on one taboo, explored through grounded, realistic storyteling that blurs the line between superstition, psychology, and social regulation. The series does not explain or resolve; it provokes.
