Un/Seen Spectres

—
Cinema Unseen/Spectres

Two programmes of short films by Afro-Swedish filmmakers which explore migration, memory and myth. 

Curated by Awa Konaté of Culture Art Society (CAS), these two programmes spotlight short films by primarily Afro-Swedish filmmakers which explore migration, memory and myth, including rarely screened shorts by filmmaker Madubuko Diakité.

Un/Seen Spectres is a gathering of moving image works by Afro-Swedish artists and filmmakers of who transverse across trans-national, trans-geographical and inter-generational histories. These screenings, curated by Awa Konaté/Culture Art Society (CAS), seek to demonstrate the ways in which Black filmmakers weave tapestries of migration, memory, and myth to explore different types of uncharted navigations of time and space.
