About the film:

SANKOFA: a film by Haile Gerima

SANKOFA is an Akan word that means, "We must go back and reclaim our

past so we can move forward; so we understand why and how we came to
 be who we are today."

Written, directed and produced by Ethiopian-born filmmaker Haile
Gerima, SANKOFA is a powerful film about Maafa-the African
holocaust.
Done from an African/African-American perspective, this story is a
vastly different one from the generally distorted representations of

African people that Hollywood gives us.

This revolutionary feature film connects enslaved black people with
their African past and culture. It empowers Black people on thescreen
by showing how African peoples' desire for freedom made them resist,

fight back, and conspire against their enslavers, overseers and
collective past through the vision on Mona, who visits her ancestral

experience on a new world planation as Shola. We share the life she
endures as a slave and experiences her growing consciousness and
transformation.
