CINÉMA AFRICAIN! - Rewriting the Archives

REWRITING THE ARCHIVES

Short films & talk with Nadia Denton

Rewriting the Archives examines the legacies of colonialism and the complex mechanisms of collective memory through a curated selection of experimental short films. The program interrogates established archives, highlights power structures, and critically engages with historical narratives, creating a dialogue between past and present, followed by an insightful discussion with film expert Nadia Denton.
