SUMMARY:Onookome Okome: Women in Nollywood
DESCRIPTION:How do we read the obvious anachronisms of the representations 
 of women in popular Nollywood films and what do they tell us about the Af
 rica in popular arts made in Africa? This is the main question that I tak
 e on in the book length study of the Nollywood film industry that produces
  the continent’s most travelled popular artifact\, the Nollywood film. I
 n the last twenty years or more this industry has been influential in the 
 making of popular culture in Africa and the iteration of women has been an
  active part of that popularity in both old and new Nollywood films. This 
 presentation calls attention to the different regimes of this iteration\, 
 offering explanations for the persistency of certain kinds of images of wo
 men and what they mean to the making of women in popular culture in contem
 porary Africa.\\r\\nIf you would like to join the Zoom session\, please co
 ntact s.burri@unibas.ch [https://ethnologie.philhist.unibas.ch/de/aktuell
