DESCRIPTION:"We Were Here" unveils the untold history of Black Africans in 
 Renaissance Europe through iconic artworks. This multilingual film\, shot 
 across Europe\, challenges the notion that all Blacks were slaves or serva
 nts. It reveals a diverse presence\, including princes\, ambassadors\, mer
 chants\, and religious figures. Narrated from an Afro-European perspective
 \, it explores stories absent from traditional history books. The film  in
 terweaves art history with social narratives\, offering a fresh lens on Eu
 ropean Renaissance and the complex tapestry of Black presence often overlo
 oked in conventional historical accounts.
