Yellow Fever
What does beauty look like? In this award-winning short, Kenyan filmmaker Ng’endo Mukii combines animation, performance, and experimental techniques to create a visually arresting and psychologically penetrating exploration of the insidious impact of Western beauty standards and media-created ideals on African women’s perceptions of themselves. From hair-straightening to skin-lightening, YELLOW FEVER unpacks the cultural and historical forces that have long made Black women uncomfortable, literally, in their own skin.

What makes it different from others?
Did you people see the same film I saw?
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
