Of Us

A Jukebox Collective production. Of Us journeys into the whispers of our seas, intertwining stories of migration with the universal symbolism of water. Echoing concepts of the Black Aquatic and Tidalectics, the film juxtaposes the fluid and fixed. Filmed in South Wales, the film pays homage to the heritage of one of the UK’s oldest Black communities, based in Tiger Bay Cardiff. Through movement, it reflects on themes of migration, identity and the enduring ancestral connection between body and memory.
