Review of Sankofa (1993) by Lovia Gyarkye for The Hollywood Reporter — 19 Nov 2014
Sankofa’s marvels range from Gerima’s meticulous editing style and electrifying use of music to his liberating nonlinear storytelling techniques. But I find myself most consistently drawn to the film’s fluid embrace of language, what it reveals about rebellion and how it deepens our understanding of Gerima’s characters.
