Third Culture will be in Montreal this summer pitching BLACK ZOMBIE at Frontières, the Fantasia-Cannes International Co-production Market. This opportunity is courtesy of a new collaboration between Frontières and Doc Circuit Montreal. BLACK ZOMBIE was initially presented at the Doc Circuit Talent Lab in 2017.
We just returned from a great trip shooting preliminary footage for our next film in New Orleans. While visiting the city, we met some great people, including Mr. Leon Waters, a local activist who dedicates his time providing Hidden History Tours to tourists in order to shed light on local historical events that have been too easily forgotten.
New Orleans is still filled with monuments and plaques that celebrate white supremacy and honour the agents responsible for racial violence and segregation in Louisiana. Mr. Leon is involved in a movement to take down these symbols of oppression and replace them with markers that commemorate Black History. You can find out more about Mr. Leon and this movement here.
