After recent marathons, I think some TBD focus on African cinema promises the biggest departure. From a fan service perspective, the marathons are likely for the more engaged Filmspotter, so it seems to be a good carve-out of the show to challenge the listeners who want this kind of experience. Nobody’s arguing about the importance of Rohmer, The French new wave, or Sight & Sound. Let’s hear about why African cinema is important.
