Film series that offers us a chronological journey through some of the key films of the black diaspora. From silent films to contemporary film-essays, it presents nine sessions that can be seen at the CCCB or at the Filmoteca. The selected films, Creole and irreverent, were filmed for almost a century and on three continents, and for the first time in our country bring together John Akomfrah, Charles Burnett, Safi Faye, Haile Gerima, Med Hondo, Raoul Peck, Isaac Julien, Abderrahmane Sissako and Jean-Marie Téno, authors who are situated within a radical international black tradition.
This cycle has been curated by Beatriz Leal and organized in collaboration with the Filmoteca de Catalunya.
