The Passion of Remembrance

One of the major works of the revolutionary Sankofa Film and Video Collective, this radically innovative film explores issues of Black British culture, gender, and sexuality via a mix of documentary, monologue, and dialogue that weaves together two narratives: a conversation between a man and a woman about their experiences living in the UK, and a decades-spanning series of episodes in the lives of one family. An early collaboration between pioneering feminist filmmaker Maureen Blackwood and acclaimed multimedia artist Isaac Julien, THE PASSION OF REMEMBRANCE provides a thought-provoking and formally audacious framework for considering the complexities of postcolonial identity.
