Grace Jones: Bloodlight and Bami
An electrifying journey through the performed, private and public worlds of pop cultural icon Grace Jones.
Larger than life, fierce and androgynous – Grace Jones plays all these parts. Yet here we discover her as a lover, daughter, mother, sister and even grandmother, as she submits herself to our gaze and allows us to understand what constitutes her mask. The film includes unique performances of her iconic hits as well as more recent autobiographical tracks that link to the film’s narrative that follows her on a holiday road trip across her native Jamaica. Here’s Grace as we have never seen her before…
“If you desire a female empowering musical manifesto with both claws and kisses, here it is.” ~Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle
