Abstract

The film Black Panther revolutionizes the representation of Africa in cinema through Afrofuturism. By presenting a technologically advanced and culturally rich nation, the film challenges colonial stereotypes and inspires new generations of creators. Costumes, in particular, play a crucial role in constructing a strong and positive African identity, celebrating the continent's cultural diversity and promoting a new narrative about Africa. Thus, through bibliographical, documentary and iconographic research with a case study of the costumes of the central core of the plot, the costumes worn by the characters were comparatively analyzed with those worn by different peoples of the African continent. It was found that the characters' costumes, by incorporating cultural elements from various African peoples, such as the Masai, Zulu and Yoruba, give the film a striking black identity and contribute to the construction of a visual aesthetic that celebrates the diversity and richness of African culture.
