Bushman
In this poetic and provocative docufiction, a young Nigerian man settles in the Bay Area in the late 1960s. The result is an incisive portrait of Black diasporic identity amidst a fraught American society. An important but rarely screened gem of independent cinema, David Schickele’s film is presented in a new restoration by BAMPFA and The Film Foundation.
