Electric Fragments No. 5 - Africa
February 2, 2005
30m
Overview
This archive footage from the 1970s reveals the social upheavals and differences of the people in different Asian and African countries. The amateur shots reflect the social and economic conditions in these countries before their development as tourist areas, or before its people were afflicted with devastation and wars. The images are indifferent to a suffering they don't yet seem to know, and which has to be viewed anew with the knowledge and distance of today.
