Impatient is a film by Autumn Knight and Monica Villarreal. This film briefly investigates Houston’s evolving ethnogeographic situation in the new millennium. A Black and Brown friendship, mediated by language, provides a lens to examine the increasingly overlapping presence of African-American and Latinos/ Chicanos throughout the city. A series of interviews weaves together a context for history and claimed space, specifically within Houston’s Third Ward and Magnolia neighborhoods. Impatient intends to participate in the ongoing discussion of potential Black/Brown cultural exchange and unification efforts.
This film was created in 2011. Today seemed like a good day to post.
