| Synopsis: | This essay delineates some of the constitutive elements of recent black British films in order to categorize it as a movement. For the sake of diasporic specifity, Diawara concentrates on the films of three film collectives: Ceddo, Sankofa and Black Audio Film Collective. Black British film presents itself with themes of discontinuity, boundaries, political agendas and aesthetic manifestos which set it apart from British experimental cinema, earlier black British films and the films of the black diaspora. | |
