From award winning shorts (including this year’s Student Academy Award) to innovative breakthrough new talent, this year’s programme focuses on exciting British and international filmmakers who use a diverse range of live action and animation techniques to explore black, ethnically-diverse themes and how we live in multicultural societies around the world today. Innovative storytelling combined with personal experience and experimental techniques take viewers deep into brave new worlds and the private lives of others; challenging cultural mindsets and making the invisible visible in complex worlds which are not always black & white, but rich with colour that make us question our biases and consider different points of views.
Disrupting the Narrative 2: Changing Mindsets, Expanding Voices was co-curated with Osbert Parker – BAFTA and Emmy nominated Director and Ambassador for FLAMIN at Film London.
A dark family secret from the past opens an abyss between two close friends: Jennifer, a German, discovers that she is the black granddaughter of a Notorious Nazi commander, and her life is turned upside down, while Noa, an Israeli, is doing whatever she can to prevent her life from turning.
