All the Colours of the World Are Between Black and White is a 2023 Nigerian romantic drama film written and directed by Babatunde Apalowo in his directorial debut.

"[5] While studying at university, a friend of the director was, in front of him, lynched by a mob because of his sexual orientation, which initiated him to do a film with LGBT themes.

Many male actors of Nollywood turned down the main roles in fear of the effects this might have on their career due to the dangerous situation of LGBT people in Nigeria.

[5] Tope Tedela and Riyo David as main lead, and Martha Ehinome Orhiere, Uchechika Elumelu and Floyd Anekwe were cast to play supporting roles.

[1] Julian Janssen of ObviosulyReviews wrote of the directing as full of visual flair, reminiscent of the works of masters of cinema Wong Kar-wai and Barry Jenkins.

[12] Matthew Joseph Jenner of ICS wrote: "Apalowo immediately announces himself as a major new talent in contemporary African cinema, an essential voice that brings not only a powerful directorial vision (with the vibrant colours and strong aesthetic perspective instantly emphasizing his prowess), but also his skill as a storyteller" and of Tedela's performance, he wrote: "with his silent moments of reflection being beautifully portrayed by Tope Tedela, whose performance is very quiet and internal, but simmers with an understated complexity that only grows as the film continues to explore his voyage of self-examination, portraying his efforts to feel less lost and isolated in a rapidly changing world, although one in which his identity is still a source of considerable contention amongst those who are more aligned with traditional values".
