About

A documentary in which three interviewees consider how misogynoir affects love between Black women and Black men in Belgium, where sexism and anti-Black racism meet.

Rita Afonso’s documentary The Rift Between Us is a talking-heads film centred on Nozizwe Dube, Marie-Fidèle Dusingize and Betel Mabille, who are billed as leading voices. It examines misogynoir and its influence on romantic ties involving Black women and Black men in Belgium. The film situates the subject where sexism and anti-Black racism intersect, and poses the question of how colonial history still affects the way people regard themselves, each other and the relationships they enter into. The production is Belgian.
