Directed by Fred Kudjo Kuwornu | 2016

Spotlighting the careers of a seldom acknowledged population of entertainers—black actors in Italian cinema—this documentary explores personal struggles and triumphs that Afro-Italian and African diasporic actors have faced across 100 years of Italian cinematic history. A challenge to the industry worldwide, Blaxploitalian is a call to action for diversity in film and media.

Screens with director A.V. Rockwell’s The Gospel, about four slice-of-life segments depicting Alicia Keys coming of age experience in New York City.
