Postcolonial Cinema
By: John Matson
Any films dealing, in some form, with the history and effects of colonial oppression. I’m including on this list films that both participate in and resist legacies of colonialism. I’m also always looking for new films to add to this list. Any recommendations will be welcome and highly appreciated.
