40 years on, The Godfather is back with black characters, thanks to the Nigerian artist Uche Okpa-Iroha, who has digitally inserted himself into scenes from Francis Ford Coppola’s gangster classic. He says: ‘The Godfather is one of the best films ever, but it misrepresents and underrepresents the black man, and as an artist I have to question that. I use humour to probe the media dynamics of race and examine the imbalance in Hollywood. My simple acts of intrusion show what was left out’
