Synopsis:This article investigates the state of black independent film in relation to the British cultural industries and asks if the history and contemporary engagements of black film-makers constitute Third Cinema practice in Britain. Auguiste argues that Third Cinema in its classical dimension does not exist in Britain and claims that "the issue is that of producing new forms of aesthetics, of visual styles and experimentation with clear-cut political and social objectives of an art form so young as the cinema."
