Is My Living in Vain

Synopsis

A meditation on the continuing history and emancipatory potential of the Black church as a space of diasporic belonging, affirmation and community organising. The film examines churches as spaces of “infrapolitics” by exploring the sonic, political, spiritual and existential connections between specific communities.
