SUMMARY:Film : Director Spotlight - Ngozi Onwurah
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 16 October\n7.00pm\nPhoenix\n£9.20 | £8.50 \nPresented by Serendipity Institute for Arts and Heritage \nBOOK NOW\n  \nA collection of short films from acclaimed director Ngozi Onwurah\, the first Black British woman to have a feature film released theatrically in the United Kingdom \nCoffee Coloured Children (1988) \nDirector: Ngozi Onwurah\n17 minutes \nPerformance art based in rituals of water and fire explores the psychological journey of trying to assimilate to\, and overcome\, the unachievable standard of whiteness. \nThe Body Beautiful (1990) \nDirector: Ngozi Onwurah\n24 minutes \nThis autobiographical narrative redefines female beauty and sexuality by reflecting on filmmaker Ngozi Onwurah’s relationship with her mother.  The cinematic treatment of the female body challenges viewers to acknowledge the rarely seen sexuality and desire of (mature) women\, outside of dominant beauty standards. \nWhite Men Are Cracking Up (1994) \nDirector: Ngozi Onwurah\n20 minutes \nThrough the blurred lines of perception and reality\, the myth of the Black feminine mystique is explored under the guise of a murder mystery.  Written by playwright Bonnie Greer\, the film explores the fetishisation of Black women as a manifestation of white male insecurity.
