Black Panther

Following his father’s death T’Challa returns to the technologically advanced African nation of Wakanda to claim the throne. When Erik Killmonger arrives with a claim to challenge for the crown and a radical vision for Wakanda’s role in the world T’Challa must defend both his kingship and his values. Ryan Coogler’s film is simultaneously a thrilling action movie and a genuinely serious political film about Black identity the legacy of colonialism and what the powerful owe to the oppressed. Chadwick Boseman’s performance carries immense dignity.
