Presented by ANU College of Arts & Social Sciences

You are invited to join the screening & discussion of "Black Orpheus" on 27 March, 6pm, Arc Cinema, which is part ANU's "Science. Art. Film." series. The film raises important questions around culture and representation, with its complex intersection of a French/Italian/Brazilian co-production, set amongst the Afro-Brazilian community and based on an ancient Greek myth. How does art shape society and culture, particularly in relation to the complexities of racial identities? How does this dynamic interaction manifest itself and change over time? Find out more about these and other questions raised by "Black Orpheus" in the post-screening panel discussion with Dr Tatiana Bur (Classics/History), Dr Karo Moret-Miranda (African Studies/History) and Rita Agha (Science Communication).
