Ideas are presented from multiple historical and contemporary perspectives, while inviting new voices to participate in discussions about the future of the African moving image. Reframing Africa? makes a plea for the recognition, preservation and repatriation of the African moving image archive, advancing ideas about how it speaks to contemporary Africans, possessed of the power to elucidate their lived experiences and to reorientate perceptions of the past, present and future. On the basis of this wide-ranging appreciation of the archive, the book charts a way forward for African-inflected film studies as well as other programmes in the humanities and social sciences.Motion PicturesAfrica, SouthernCinematographyPerforming ArtsHistoryPhotographyKros Cynthia1379679Auguiste Pervaiz1379680MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQ9910735581303321Reframing Africa3419824UNINA
