Drawing from historical archives and familial history, Adrian Burrell’s documentary short films, The Game God(S) and The Saints Step in Kongo Time examine the extractive, unjust relationship between capitalism and Blackness. Explore how Burrell is building a visual language that uses modes of call and response and repetition within his films to shape new narratives that aim to heal from the past and summon a new future.
