Plot edit
"Under the White Mask" is a short film that uses excerpts from "Under The Black Mask", a 1958 film about Congolese art, directed by Belgian artist Paul Haesaerts and considered colonial propaganda.[2] This new film imagines what the masks, now subjects and no longer objects, would say.[2] "Under the White Mask" limits itself to elements that already existed in 1958.
Production edit
The film was produced by Cobra films with help from the Museum aan de Stroom.[2] The masks used in the film are from the Museum aan de Stroom.[3] In addition, Aimé Césaire's book "Discourse on Colonialism" is discussed in Lingala.[4]
Trivia edit
The film can be seen on the New York Times series called Op-Docs.[5]
