Haunted Histories: Exploring 'His House' and Colonial Legacies 👻

Join us for an engaging lecture on the film His House (2020), a chilling ghost story that delves into themes of displacement, uncertainty, and the haunting echoes of empire. 🌍✨

This event situates the film within the context of a global “horror cinema of precarity,” utilizing the genre to shine light on marginalized narratives. 📖💡

Drawing on postcolonial Gothic and hauntological theories, we will uncover how the film reflects Britain’s imperial and capitalist legacies through an atmospheric lens rather than physical manifestations. These spectral colonial influences reveal themselves through systems of surveillance, labor, and consumption, highlighting the profound violence experienced by refugees in a UK that remains a difficult home to claim. 🎥🏚️

Don’t miss this opportunity to explore the intersection of horror and socio-political commentary!
