Reel Suave | Killer Of Sheep

Just last week I had seen a student film by Charles Burnett. It speaks of the problems faced by the black community in America. How they cope with their lives? How at times it is poetic to watch them go around a room? Charles takes some challenging camera angles to portray a family in turmoil not only with themselves but with the outside world as well. It feels like a story out of one of the many Toni Morrison novels. It mirrors the life of a man who has gone through several changes in his life. Changes that were forced upon him that has left him almost inert to any sort of feeling. He sleeps very little and keeps working. But what is that leaves him sleepless for days on end.
