AfroArgentina: A Documentary in Resistance is a feature-length documentary project that challenges the dominant narrative that Argentina is a racially homogenous nation. Through intimate storytelling, archival research, and community collaboration, the film centers Afro-Argentine voices whose histories have been systematically erased from national memory.
The project documents how Afro-Argentines have survived slavery, state violence, and cultural erasure – while continuing to shape Argentine identity through music, language, labor, and resistance. More than a historical correction, AfroArgentina is an act of cultural preservation and political insistence: a refusal to disappear.
Ellis Clark Foundation is proud to serve as a producer of the documentary as part of our broader commitment to using art as a tool for justice, education, and global solidarity.
