SAVING BRUCE LEE an introduction)

As part of our program of discussions and exchanges, Rasha Salti and Koyo Kouoh present SAVING BRUCE LEE an introduction to their research project on the influence of the Soviet film education in the African and Arab cinema through the journeys of a dozen filmmakers from Africa and the Midle-East, including Sembene Ousmane, Abderrahmane Sissako, Souleymane Cissé among others. The lecture will discuss the academic canons and those of contemporary art for the study and presentation of films as works of art in the museum space. It will also explore how to reconcile the dissonance between oral histories and institutional archives. 

The lecture was introduced and moderated by Baba Diop, film critic.
