By inviting members of the West African diaspora in London to comment on portraits from a collection of colonial ethnographic photographs taken in West Africa between 1909 and 1915, the film highlights the plurality of contemporary perspectives on these images. Some discern the imprint of colonial violence, while others perceive signs of optimism, resilience, or unexpected forms of identification, thus complicating any single interpretation of these photographs.
