{"product_id":"bushman-dvd_kink26591","title":"Bushman Dvd","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1968, Peace Corps veteran David Schickele enlisted his friend Paul Eyam\u003cbr\u003e\nNzie Okpokam to star in a light-hearted drama about the adventures of a\u003cbr\u003e\nwell-educated Nigerian immigrant in San Francisco. Using a docu-fictional\u003cbr\u003e\nstyle reminiscent of John Cassavetes’ Shadows (1959), Bushman observes\u003cbr\u003e\nthe foibles of late-1960s African-American culture with an outsider’s incisive\u003cbr\u003e\neye. The film morphs into a documentary when the director’s voice abruptly\u003cbr\u003e\nintrudes to narrate its star’s fate: Okpokam was accused of a crime he did\u003cbr\u003e\nnot commit and found himself at the mercy of the US justice system.\u003cbr\u003e\nBushman has been restored by the University of California, Berkeley Art\u003cbr\u003e\nMuseum and Pacific Film Archive and The Film Foundation. Funding provided\u003cbr\u003e\nby the Hobson\/Lucas Family Foundation.
