Filmmakers Rosine Mbakam and Eléonore Yameogo join Belgian An van. Dienderen to construct a collaborative essay film exploring the legacy of racism inherent in photographic technology.

In each of the film’s three sections the filmmakers take technological bias as a point of departure, building personal reflections on the limitations of a medium calibrated specifically for Caucasian skin.
