Performance

Moi, un noir

1 upcoming performance in New York

Now playing at L’Alliance New York, *Moi, un noir* is presented with live context from film critic J. Hoberman, whose work has long linked cinema to the street-level pressures of modern life. Jean Rouch’s film follows young Nigerien migrants in Abidjan as they narrate their own days, drifting between work, fantasy, and borrowed movie identities. In New York, it lands as an early marker of modern docu-fiction and a key reference point for how documentary can admit performance without losing its social record.
