How has the art of storytelling, imagining and creating evolved, from the archival to the contemporary? The pioneers and those who follow in their footsteps? Alongside championing those who came before, it is important to recognise the here and now.
Continuing the legacy of storytelling through various mediums, these films speak to Black British experiences with movement and music, with each film speaking to the importance and relevance of the arts in day-to-day life.
