Black Panther Review Filmmakers Australia Taku Podcast

Episode 75 – Unfiltered Black Panther Review by 5 Black Storytellers in Australia

We recorded for an hour and it feels like we didn’t even scratch the surface!

Last Sunday, I sat in a Melbourne studio with four creative storytellers to review Marvel’s Black Panther movie. Between the five of us, individually, we make films, write stories, write poems, take photos, create visual art, draw, record podcasts, perform on stage and organise African film festivals in Melbourne, Australia.

So yes, we had plenty to say about Black Panther‘s characters, story lines, political relevance, ‘African-ness’ and overall technical execution. We also chat about the stories we want to tell and see in the future, and how we want to do so. The fabulous guests in this episode are Felicity Mashuro, Tanya Hodza, Christopher White and Ez Eldin Deng, who joins us halfway through.

Our final average score for Black Panther: 85.3 /100
