Black Ibis
Synopsis
Guided by a mysterious entity, a young Black woman sets out on a quest for intimacy in a world where the lines between the personal and the political, the individual and the collective, the past and the present, are increasingly blurred. This afro-surrealistic reverie poetically reimagines contemporary conceptions of selfhood and community, while questioning the historically and culturally imposed views on the intimate lives of Black people in the diaspora.
