Shadows Fall North - 12th Annual Harlem International Film Festival
SHADOWS FALL NORTH Director: Brian Vawter US, 110 min
Perhaps no other documentary has explored Black history in New Hampshire like this film that features the key players responsible for Portsmouth's African Burying Ground memorial park, honoring the centuries-old souls discovered beneath city sidewalks more than a decade ago.
And it delves deep into the overlooked history of racism in Northern New England. A rallying cry to acknowledge untold stories and set history straight. How does New Hampshire, a state with the motto "Live Free or Die," confront and understand its participation in slavery, segregation, and the neglect of African-American history? What happens to our identity as residents of this state, as New Englanders and as Americans when we begin to acknowledge all of our past?
