Kenneth Harrow's book innovatively places science in conversation with African films. This pairing leads to the groundbreaking possibility that multiple kinds of time exist in and around the cinematic experience. From this hypothesis, Harrow reframes our relationship with cinema and moves the field of African cinema into much-needed new territory.
