Black Dandy: A Political Beauty

Overview

"Black Dandy," directed by Ariel Wizman and Laurent Lunetta, traces the history of "black dandyism" and the reinvention of "masculine chic." The film pays tribute to the black men who fight against the stigma that comes with being a man of color who pays very special attention to his appearance and his style. The filmmakers also explore "black dandyism" as a form of protest and as a sign of affirmation of black men's existence.
