Here is an experimental visual poem, inviting people to occupy the Black Body and examine the lived Black experience for a brief moment. Combining film, animation, photography, and archival footage Here explores what blackness means to me. As well as what it might mean to others.
The dense collection of layered voices, occupying different points of view throughout the film, are as infused with as much love and hope as they are filled with a deep sense of concern and anguish. These are the familiar voices of our mothers, our oppressors, and of our allies. They talk to you; they become you; they start speaking out against you, ultimately leaving you with the question which voice you identify with most.
