Independent filmmaker Haile Gerima is considered one of the leading cinematic voices of our time, and he joins “Black News Tonight” host Marc Lamont Hill to discuss.

Gerima’s groundbreaking 1993 masterpiece “Sankofa” won critical acclaim, but was often overlooked by distributors. Fast forward to today, Array Releasing has partnered with Gerima for a spectacular 4K restoration of “Sankofa,” which is now available in its full glory on Netflix. Developed from 20 years of research into the untold history of Black resistance, the film has been hailed “a celebration of the strength of Black people.”

All this and more on “Black News Tonight.”
