Ngozi Onwurah’s 1995 thriller became the first feature directed by a black woman to be theatrically distributed in cinemas in the UK. It centres on a dystopia called the Terrordome, where black people live, amid racial tensions which are running high following the dramatic death of a young boy. Over a quarter of a century later the feature about a mother seeking retribution remains angry and uncompromising.


Part of the Black Women's Retrospective which includes Belle and Daughters of the Dust.
