Overview
This moderated discussion explores notions of ‘emergence’ within and beyond conventional frameworks of postcolonialism, nation-building, modernity and economic development. How can filmmakers embrace a responsibility toward critically engaging with the world and its histories? Two filmmakers and an artist consider the possibilities of reflecting on current conditions in places such as the Philippines, Palestine and the Democratic Republic of the Congo through a discussion of recent work.
