History of African cinema from a critical and an interdisciplinary perspective.

Some of the themes that the course explores are: key filmmakers and films in African cinema, representation, resistance, the reconciliation of the oral tradition with modern means of communication, the creation of authentic, indigenous, and counter-hegemonic African identity in film, and the role of African film in social development.
