Ajamu : Joyful Insurrection, A Random Acts Short
Directed by Stephen Isaac-Wilson



In this experimental film, we celebrate the life and career of photographer and artist Ajamu, and use him as a conduit to explore the black British gay sexual experience. Since the 90s, his work has challenged understandings of sexualities, desire, pleasure and cultural production within contemporary Britain.
