The Silicon Valley Science Fiction Short Film Festival - Afro Punk Girl

5/3/2017

There is a movement within SciFi that has come to the front lately. Afro-Futurism is one of the most impressive genre cultural and aesthetic movements that I've come across. Writers like Minister Faust and Nnedi Okorafor have established the concept. I would put the dystopian visions of the brilliant British film Afro Punk Girl in that arena, and even more, that it establishes the emotional content within a visual style that calls to mind the best of of filmmakers ranging from Kieslowski to Brian Beheney. 

Lil is our hero, a punk in a wasteland that is ruled by an incompassionate military. She meets Mr. Dandy, and he takes her on an emotional discovery. It is a beautiful film from so many different directions, especially in the way it looks at the vast empty and places it firmly within a context that makes a viewer consider our world, the horizon of our time, especially with the current political scene. 

This is an exploration, and a marvelous one. 

Afro Punk Girl will be showing as a part of the Silicon Valley Science Fiction Short Film Festival, and first shows at BayCon on May 28th at 2:30 at the Marriott San Mateo!
