    Greetings from Africa

    Cheryl DUNYE 1994 USA color 9min English DCP
    Made with great creativity on miniscule budgets, Greetings from Africa is an explicitly personal film from DUNYE's early oeuvre, in which Cheryl, playing herself, humorously experiences the mysteries of lesbian dating in the 90’s.

    Cheryl DUNYE

    Emerged as part of the New Queer Cinema movement of young filmmakers in the 1990s, DUNYE often set within a personal or domestic context. Her stories foreground issues of race, sexuality, and identity. Her feature debut, The Watermelon Woman, won the Teddy Award for Best Feature Film at the Berlinale in 1996.
