In his 1978 film &#8220;A Deusa Negra&#8221; pioneering Nigerian film director Ola Balogun, who is himself from one of those families, tells the parallel histories of the transatlantic slave trade and one young contemporary Nigerian&#8217;s search for his Afro-Brazilian roots.<br \/>\n<strong>Didi Cheeka<\/strong> is an off-Nollywood filmmaker, critic and archivist-activist in Lagos.<br \/>\n<strong>Vinzenz Hediger<\/strong> is professor of cinema studies at Goethe University Frankfurt.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Film: A DEUSA NEGRA (Black Godess.

Based on a can-dombl\u00e9 rite, his journey leads him deeper and deeper into the foreign culture and, in a dream-like sequence, gives him a deeper understanding of the suffering and resilience of his ancestors. Balogun effortlessly combines the present with the past, real worlds with magical ones, discourse with trance. The music by Nigerian drummer Remi Kabaka, which plays with repetitive patterns and distortions, also contributes to the hypnotizing atmosphere.&#8221; (Arsenal e.V.)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Further information and program: <a href=\"https:\/\/contrust.uni-frankfurt.de\/black-atlantic-cinema\/\">Here&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section class=\"em-event-content\"><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lecture &amp; Film &#8220;Black Atlantic Cinema&#8221; Introduction: Didi Cheeka (Lagos) and Vinzenz Hediger (Frankfurt, ConTrust) Lecture: Crossing the Black Atlantic: Ola Balogun and A Deusa Negra (1978) Reversing the course [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":7270,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"tags":[178,184],"tribe_events_cat":[370,369],"class_list":["post-8990","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-lecture","tag-movie","tribe_events_cat-black-atlantic-cinema-en","tribe_events_cat-lecture-film-en","cat_black-atlantic-cinema-en","cat_lecture-film-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8990"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8990"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8990\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9016,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/8990\/revisions\/9016"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7270"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8990"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8990"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/normativeorders.net\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=8990"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
