The Adventures of the Black Girl in Her Search for Mabel Dove

When The Great Erasure interrupts her reading of Dove’s story, The Black Girl goes in search of the author. After the Feminist Bookseller and Africanist Professor do not help her, she turns to The Revisionists, in whose cyberarchive she is able to locate Dove and the two spend an afternoon together. Told in the style of a ciné-roman, the film is an homage to Shaw and Dove’s “Adventure” novellas.
