Cold Islanders in partnership with The New Black Film Collective presents: BABYMOTHER & THREADS OF MEMORY + Q&A

The Q+A will include a discussion around fashion and identity with Threads of Memory director Juliana Kasumu alongside director and performer Danny Bailey. 

Babymother:

A single mother determined to make it as a singer puts together an all girl reggae group named Neeta, Sweeta, & Nastie with her friends. Living in a housing project with little support, the odds are obviously against her. Emotionally she struggles too as she learns at her mother's death that her actual mother is the woman she had thought was her older sister. With the help of a female agent, the group starts to get some exposure and rises above their setting.

Threads of Memory:

Unravelling the enduring influence of West African and Caribbean cultural memory on Black British fashion, Threads of Memory explores how migration, identity and resilience alongside an ever-expanding style and social exchange via moving image, shaped the evolution of a fashion movement that redefines authenticity and challenges stereotypes.
