Black Audio Film Collective: Handsworth Songs Screening
Event Information
Event description
Description
Join us for a special screening of Black Audio Film Collective's seminal work of film "Handsworth Songs".
Black Audio Film Collective defined the intended audience of this film as diasporic-peoples, with this film being part of a wider production of anti-racist/sexist films by the group.
"Handsworth Songs" challeges homogenous representations of migrant communities by the British media in the wake of the death of Joy Gardner, an elderly black Birmingham local.
