Curator June Givanni in person
This small selection is the tip of the iceberg of a wide range of documentary films from accomplished directors from the African continent. In addition to their skill and filmmaking styles, the value of the films lay in the filmmakers own expression of their cultures and stories that are both surprising and revealing – effectively engaging the viewer.
Two films, very different in style - Angele Diabang’s short Mon Beau Sourire (My Beautiful Smile) and Andrew Dosunmu’s documentary Hot Irons -remind us of the rich and diverse repository of work that redefine beauty. The films are particularly topical because they both relate to the recurrent commentaries and expressions of identity that take place across the continent and in the African diaspora.
