Reseña del libro "The World of Black Film. A Journey Through Cinematic Blackness in 100 Films With a Foreword by John Akomfrah"

An entertaining, informed, and thought-provoking survey of important and influential Black films from around the world.

The World of Black Film is an entertaining, informed, and thought-provoking survey of important and influential Black films from around the globe, from to the early days of cinema to now.

Beautifully designed and bursting with film imagery, this book will appeal to general film fans, enthusiasts of Black cinema, educators, and students alike.
