Film making as knowledge creation is targeting the colonial archive in multiple ways. Colonial history in its broad and specific, principally violent and manifold long-term consequences is scrutinized vigorously. The Namibian filmmaker Perivi Katjavivi provides insights into and film snippets from his cinematic work on topical Namibian narratives and talks with the historian Dag Henrichsen about his motivations and visions.

Perivi Katjavivi is a filmmaker and also PhD candidate at the University of the Western Cape, South Africa. His films include Emoyeni (Netflix 2020), Film Festival Film (Berlinale 2019), The Unseen (Busan 2016).
