    Akosua Adoma Owusu (born January 1, 1984) is a

    filmmaker and producer. Her films explore the colliding identities of black immigrants in America through multiple forms ranging from cinematic essays to experimental narratives to reconstructed Black popular media. Interpreting the notion of "double consciousness," coined by sociologist and civil rights activist W. E. B. Du Bois, Owusu aims to create a third cinematic space or consciousness. In her work, feminism, queerness, and African identities interact in African, white American, and black American cultural spaces.[1][2]

    She is currently a Visiting Lecturer at Harvard University and the Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York.

    Early life and education

    Owusu was born to Ghanaian parents and raised in an

    experimental films.[7]

    Career

    Shortly after graduating from CalArts in 2008, Owusu was a featured artist

    Guggenheim Fellow.[13]

    In 2020, Owusu received the Lincoln Center Award for Emerging Artists[14] bestowed by Film at Lincoln Center.[15]

    Indiewire describes Owusu's shape-shifting film style:

    Trafficking in the "complex contradictions" of blackness, displacement and

    experimental cinema, fine art and African tradition in order to create avant-garde films that question the nature of identity.[16]

    Her "warring consciousness" as she describes it, becomes the point of departure for her film Me broni ba (my white baby).[17] Using hair as a medium of culture, she examines African and African-American identities and ideologies in an effort to resolve their differences.[18] Ed Halter, one of the founders of Light Industry in Brooklyn, listed Me Broni Ba as one of 2010's top ten films in Artforum magazine.[19]

    She has produced award-winning films including Reluctantly Queer (2016) and

    Africa Movie Academy Award[22] for the West African nation of Ghana in the Best Short Film category. The film, which starred Ghanaian artist Jojo Abot, was supported by Focus Features' Africa First,[23] and had its North American debut at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.[24][25][26] Kwaku Ananse was also included in the 2013 Académie des Arts et Techniques du Cinéma - César Golden Nights, a program organized with support from UNESCO
    that selects notable short films.

    Reluctantly Queer (2016)

    African Studies at the University of Virginia[30] was nominated for the Golden Bear and Teddy Award[31] at the 2016 Berlin International Film Festival.[32] It had its North American premiere as part of the New Directors/New Films Festival.[33][34][35]

    In 2017, Owusu

    Hilary Banks on the NBC sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, secured a nomination at the 2017 African Movie Academy Awards. The film went on to screen at the Fowler Museum,[45] ICA London [46] and the 25th New York African Film Festival co-presented by Film at Lincoln Center.[47]

    Owusu said in a 2015 interview with South Africa's

    America to help me with the trauma of dealing with blackness both in Africa and in the African diaspora. My love for Africa was informed by romantic ideas about the continent as a home awaiting my arrival. Filming in Ghana, forms part of this journey."[48]

    In 2014, Akosua Adoma Owusu was one of the Executive Producers for Afronauts a science fiction short film written and directed by young Ghanaian filmmaker Nuotama Bodomo.[49]

    In 2013, Owusu was nominated for Tribeca Film Institute's Heineken Affinity Award's $20,000 prize.[50]

    In 2013, Owusu's film Split Ends, I Feel Wonderful (2012) received the Tom Berman Award for Most Promising Filmmaker at the 51st Ann Arbor Film Festival in Michigan.[51]

    In 2011, Owusu participated as a member of the international jury at the

    Festival des trois continents in Nantes, France.[52]

    In 2011, Owusu exhibited work in Cusp: Works on Film & Video by Kevin Jerome Everson & Akosua Adoma Owusu at the Luggage Store Gallery. Called the "intimate and the ideal realization of the vision of a valuable genius",[53] this show included Revealing Roots, a silent re-enactment of one of the most dramatic scenes from Alex Haley's Roots (1977 miniseries) combining found footage and scenes that star Owusu and other African actors.[54]

    An anthology of Owusu's work has been granted to Grasshopper Film LLC.[55]

    Rex Cinema

    In 2013, Owusu launched a global

    curfews. Owusu sought to save Rex Cinema for the purpose of preserving cinema houses.[62] In 2016, Owusu developed a screenplay based on her global campaign to Save the Rex Cinema[63][64][65] in Ghana at the Camargo Foundation in Cassis, France.[66][67] In 2017, The Guardian announced that Owusu was working on a part-real life, part-fictionalized feature film about her campaign to restore the historic Rex cinema.[68]
