Film: Two Refusals (Would We Recognize Ourselves Unbroken?)

by Suneil Sanzgiri

A kaleidoscopic blend of CGI animation, 16mm film, hand-processed film, and destroyed archival film form filmmaker Suneil Sanzgiri's Two Refusals (Would We Recognize Ourselves Unbroken?). Part experimental documentary, part film-essay, and part fantasy, Two Refusals delves into Portugal's colonial histories across India and Africa – uncovering links and kinships that developed between historical resistance figures in the two continents, from Goa to Mozambique, and from Angola to Guinea-Bissau. The film's glistening soundtrack was composed by musician and improviser Amirtha Kidambi, who performed at last year's festival.

Konkaki, Portuguese and English spoken, English subtitles

This is the second film as part of a double screening, alongside Both, Instrument & Sound by Sharlene Bamboat, which plays directly before this, starting at 15:00. Please arrive in time for the first film.
