Frantz Fanon: Black Skin, White Mask // Game Changers
Embark on a dreamy journey through the life and ideas of groundbreaking anti-colonial intellectual Frantz Fanon in this glorious restoration of Isaac Julien’s classic 1995 biopic. One of the first texts to lay bare the corrosive psychological effects of racism, Fanon’s Black Skin, White Mask remains a defining work of anti-colonial thought, fifty years after its English-language publication. Weaving together striking dramatic re-enactments, archival footage, and interviews with family members and scholars (including Stuart Hall), Julien crafts an inventive exploration of the Martinique-born writer's still-potent theories on identity, black alienation, and the struggle for liberation.
