Already unlocked? for access

From the conceptual and physical landscapes of the African Diaspora, to the visible and invisible forms of Black women’s labor, to the passage from spring into summer at the peak of 2020’s Black Lives Matter protests, the films in this block are poised, lush, lyrical, and unforgettable reflections of the nuance and complexity of contemporary Black experience. 

A foursome of intergenerational black women detail the quotidian nature of mother/womanhood. Transfixed by an historical and surrealistic imagery, bustitOpen molds a legacy and an (un)making of the world of their work.
