The stunning, color-saturated images that make up Julien's work refer to the African Diaspora and the quest to find roots in a New World. The DVD includes an interview by Dan Cameron.

Point Of View: An Anthology of the Moving Image is a DVD series that features eleven leading artists from different generations and cultural perspectives, who are among the most important artists working in film, video, and digital imagery today: Francis Alys, David Claerbout, Douglas Gordon, Gary Hill, Pierre Huyghe, Joan Jonas, Isaac Julien, William Kentridge, Paul McCarthy, Pipilotti Rist and Anri Sala.

The anthology includes eleven separate DVDs in a boxed set.
