‘Return’ follows a wooden comb coming to life and escaping the museum to go on a journey of self-discovery and self-determination.
This short animated film questions the collection and display of African artifacts in Western museums and topics of restitution and the concept of self-determination after a period of oppression. Reclaiming one’s narrative, defining one’s own path and asserting one’s identity are the leading themes in this animation. Find more about this project here!
