Edem Dotse

Biography

Ghana

Edem is a product of prosperity gospel, imported telenovelas, hip-life music and YouTube comment sections. Born and raised in Ghana, his passion for filmmaking was sparked by a music video experiment in college, which led him astray from his Computer Science degree. His work so far explores spirituality, parent-child dynamics and identity. He is drawn to marginalized characters because, to quote Djibril Diop Mambéty, "they do more for the evolution of a community than the conformists."
