Ciné-Club: PRISM

September 12 | 18:30

Synopsis:

For PRISM Belgian filmmaker An van. Dienderen invited Brussels based Rosine Mbakam from Cameroon and Paris based Eléonore Yameogo from Burkina Faso to work together on a film in which the differences in their skin color serves as a departure to explore their experiences with the biased limitations of the medium. Photographic media are technologically and ideologically biased, favoring Caucasian skin. Such white-centricity means that the photographic media assume, privilege and construct whiteness.  
How can we, three makers with different colors of skin, be together in one frame? And how can we create a common film on this topic?

Réalisatrices: An van Dienderen, Rosine Mbakam et Eléonore Yameogo

Langue: français avec sous-titres en anglais
