oatmeal<p>Quoting Perivi John Katjavivi (When asked about his stance on the reparations struggle against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Germany" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Germany</span></a>): "All I want is for someone to paint the school in my family's village... I don't need every German to come and apologize to me."</p><p>Came across a review of this 2023 movie which I didn’t watch yet. "Under the Hanging Tree" is described as a supernatural noir set in a small desert town in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Namibia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Namibia</span></a>, exploring themes of colonial history, cultural identity, and the haunting of the past. The story follows an impetuous city officer, Christina Mureti, who investigates a series of mysterious crimes. </p><p>[…] The plot is minimal and the solution to the murder mystery is not fully explicit. Katjavivi explains that unlike traditional African cinema, which focuses on surface-level events and characters' reactions to external events, his film deals with Christina's internal struggle with the ghosts of the past: "I'm interested in how to tell a story about a history that haunts you, that stays with you, that gets under your skin... that continues to echo".</p><p>[…] This design of the mise-en-scène gives them autonomy and control over their presence in front of the camera. This is an act of compensation and healing of trauma, and an expression of what Katjavivi calls the "decolonization of African cinema".</p><p><a href="https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/under-the-hanging-tree" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/un</span><span class="invisible">der-the-hanging-tree</span></a></p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/histodons" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>histodons</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnderTheHangingTree" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UnderTheHangingTree</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/GermanColonialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GermanColonialism</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CrimesAgainstHumanity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CrimesAgainstHumanity</span></a> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OatmealQuotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OatmealQuotes</span></a></p>
