The video artist and film maker John Akomfrah has won the UK's biggest prize for international contemporary art, the Artes Mundi. The winning piece, Auto Da Fé, continues John's longstanding look at migration. Presented as a poetic period drama, the film connects a series of eight historical migrations over the last 400 years caused by religious persecution and political turmoil. He's been speaking to Audrey Brown. Photo: Auto Da Fé (2016) by John Akomfrah. Photo credit: Polly Thomas
