chapter 4: Dominique Thorne, Ruth E. Carter, Ludwig Göransson

Every film is a machine, a complex device made of people with a myriad of jobs and responsibilities. Ta-Nehisi Coates breaks apart the machinery of Wakanda Forever, zooming into the creative processes of actor Dominique Thorne (Riri Williams), costume designer Ruth E. Carter, and composer Ludwig Göransson. In an episode filled with music from Göransson’s soundtrack and score and some clips from director Ryan Coogler’s audio diaries, we learn more about what it takes to build a film that not only entertains but makes us feel something in the process.
