What Maya Angelou: And Still I Rise Is About
The documentary tells the life of Maya Angelou through her own words, archive photographs and rarely seen footage. It runs from her childhood in the Depression era South to the days she spent with Malcolm X in Ghana and on to the poem she read at Bill Clinton’s inauguration; those same years were also the hardest period of the civil rights struggle in America, and the two are not separated. Interviews with her are part of the film, and while she speaks the timing, the humour and the hardness in her voice become the account itself. In the hundred and twelve minute American documentary by Bob Hercules and Rita Coburn Whack, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and Common also speak. It was completed in 2016.
