- Synopsis
- Just Above my Head (1996) takes its title from the work of the same name by the American writer James Baldwin. The film shows the artist’s head walking beneath an immense white sky, coming in and out of frame according to how his pace varies in relation to the movement of the camera. At the end of the film the complete figure appears surrounded by trees. McQueen’s reference to Baldwin’s literary and critical work shows an interest in certain forms of literature in which the black African presence emerges as a threat.
