Allen-Golder Carpenter, Nia Imani, Adeshola Makinde, USA, 92 min.<br>In English | Format: Digital<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>November 14 <\/strong>| MEMORY &amp; STYLE: SOJOURN &amp; CANDY PAINT brings together two formally inventive works that explore identity, memory, and the ways Black life is archived through personal and collective expression. Allen-Golder Carpenter&#8217;s SOJOURN follows a protagonist who awakens without memory and embarks on a journey across worlds to recover the fragments of their identity. Paired with Nia Imani and Adeshola Makinde&#8217;s CANDY PAINT, an exuberant archival collage celebrating Black style, adornment, and creative expression, the program considers memory as something continually reconstructed through culture, community, and self-definition. Together, these films reveal the power of image-making to preserve history, honor lineage, and imagine new futures.<em><br><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Film Center is ADA accessible.
