Herself
Black people in Germany still have to struggle with racism and prejudice. In "Black and German," women and men from four generations tell their moving, stirring and proud stories.
Director
Inspired by the Black feminist tradition of quilting, Natasha A. Kelly’s film Milli’s Awakening brings together the voices of eight Black German women of different generations. Through their artistic practices all of them have found a way to define a self-determined position within white German mainstream society. The result is a documentary that simultaneously reflects the diversity and connectivity of their (her-)stories. (Adapted from Berlin Biennale synopsis)
