A touching embrace of Black female subjectivity on screen, A Different Image is a coming-of-age story rooted in representation. Alana is a young art student exploring the political and intimate contours of her new social world, including a developing friendship with co-worker Vincent. As she attempts to define herself, she must contend with a world saturated by racist and stereotypical images of Black women, one which refuses to “see her as she is.” With a trenchant narrative voice and montage, Alile Sharon Larkin realized a foundational work of Black feminist filmmaking. 1982, US, DCP, 51 min.New to the Walker Cinema?
