I I An African Allegory (1979) Ben Caldwell

Director Ben Caldwell designedI Ias a résumé piece to showcase his skills in experimental filmmaking, dramatic filmmaking and documentary. Drawing from Ayi Kwei Armahs novel, Two Thousand Seasons, Caldwell meditates on reciprocity and on the concept of I and I which postulates no division between people, whereas the splitting of you from I is an invention of the devil designed to brew trouble in the world.
