Flesh, Mind and Spirit TV Takeover curated by Alejandro González Iñárritu – Killer of Sheep by Charles Burnett
The debut film by writer / director Charles Burnett, set in Los Angeles, about a man determined to keep his family and soul intact while putting in long, debilitating hours at slaughterhouse, brings the unadorned fervor of Neorealism to the African- American community. Made in 1977, it was only released theatrically in 2007.
Killer of Sheep by Charles Burnett will be screened at the Fondazione Prada on Sunday 17th January at 6:30pm.
