Even The Stars Look Lonesome is grounded in the writings and research of the Senegalese historian and scientist Cheikh Anta Diop on the "Planetary Society" and the "Birth of the Universe", unfolding into a poetic polyphonic immersive chant, rhymed and rythmed through the somatic spaces of the body, cutting through spaces of certainty. Film as a Ritual of fugitivity and migration through the multiverses, between light and darkness complementing each other in the Collective Act of Being. Being seen and unseen. Seeing one another. Our invisible bonds echoing each other.
Performers: choreographer David Hamilton Thomson and New York-based World Box Champion Michael Olajide JR
Poets: Zakisha Brown & Borelson from RISE Toronto
