saw this a while back at the london film fest about the repatriation of artefacts to benin. the debate scenes were great - really interesting way to show the impassioned responses of people from all sides to the return of the statues

He journeys to the source of the holy river Ganges in Himalayan India and it’s such a real life epic quest to attempt, I want to believe I could be up to one day do it myself but this doc allows you to vicariously live it on VHS

black queer history is FULL of forgotten legends who have shaped mainstream culture and continue to have a lasting impact on fashion, language, art & performance. 
Paris Is Burning immortalises and preserves the legacy and the stories of the people featured in this film along with the spaces, community and families they created for themselves in a society that consistently marginalised and discriminated against them. this is an essential watch!!!
