Ebony Reels presents a double bill of two compelling films exploring Black survival across different narratives and time periods. Brown Girl Begins, set in 2049, follows Ti-Jeanne as she navigates her responsibility to a secluded island community off Toronto's coast. Through spiritual knowledge and courage, she must confront a supernatural force to fulfil her role as a Caribbean priestess and protect her people's future. Paired with a historical supernatural film, this programme moves between Afrofuturism and established traditions within Black cinema, offering audiences distinct yet thematically connected perspectives on resilience and cultural continuity.
