ASMARINA

Voices and images of a postcolonial heritage

Asmarina is a documentary film about the Habesha (Eritrean and Ethiopian) community in Milan that bridges the present life of this community to the historical legacies of Italian colonialism in the Horn of Africa.

The film makers’ approach to the Habesha life is not as outsiders but rather, as involved and invested members of this community.
