Filmic Migrations of the Carmen Figure
View through CrossRef
In the chapter, Kimberly Nichele Brown reconsiders the story of transgressive female sexuality that Carmen, Prosper Mérimée’s 1845 novella, made famous. Given the novella’s many reinterpretations, Brown sees Carmen as a migratory figure, whose mythology traverses cultural and national boundaries, including Karmen Geï, the 2001 film by Senegalese director Joseph Gaï Ramaka. Karmen Geï offers an especially progressive rendering of Black female erotic agency that challenges the white western gaze and calls for a reevaluation of critical approaches that position African gender politics as atavistic and stagnant. The film adaptation reshapes a prescriptive morality tale into one that articulates and visualizes sexual decolonization for its western and Senegalese viewers. In Karmen Geï, Ramaka reframes the discourse of love to include self-actualization and civic responsibility, thereby modeling what sexual liberation might look like for its Black female viewers throughout the Diaspora.
