Candyman (2021)
Movie
Released
The art world's appetite for a neighbourhood's trauma becomes part of how the legend circulates. Nia DaCosta uses mirrors and shadow-puppet storytelling to connect looking with the responsibility of retelling. Choose the 2021 continuation for the way visual form carries questions about whose suffering becomes valuable, with knowledge of the 1992 film adding context. Racist violence and graphic bodily harm are central.
