Delighted that Zeinabu irene Davis's film Compensation, at festivals in 1999-2000 but unreleased, has been named to the Library of Congress's National Film Registry. Great films leap ahead into the future but should be seen in their own time, too; the industry failed this one.
@FocusFeatures - COMPENSATION | #NYFF62 Revivals selection | Opens February 21
Shot in luminous black-and-white, Zeinabu irene Davis's 1999 feature evokes both a sense of tragedy and a hopefulness for life that remains persistent in the hearts of Black Americans today. Newly restored in 4K.
