Meanwhile on Set… centers conditions of acting for British black actresses. Actors veer from the filmmaking process, question the context of their surroundings, breakdown, and misbehave like viruses disrupting a sometimes subtly, sometimes overtly racist system. Three women of color revolt: against the orders of the director, the film’s narration, the insinuations of the talk master. Against a system, that denies, falsifies, exploits and renders invisible their identities, their bodies and their (hi)stories.
