Online exclusive! Available starting 4/2.
Italy, Lesotho, South Africa, United States | 2019 | Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese
Worthy of comparison with the work of Pedro Costa, Andrei Tarkovsky, and Souleymane Cissé, this multi-award-winning new movie that snagged 2020 African Movie Academy Awards for Best Actress, Director, and Cinematography marks the introduction of a major filmmaker while showcasing the final performance of an indelible actress. The late Mary Twala Mhlongo (Beyoncé’s Black Is King) plays an elderly Mosotho woman who’s preparing her own funeral when she decides to resist the construction of a new dam and reservoir that will force the resettlement of her village. Has a 100% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes! “An extraordinary and otherworldly feature film from the tiny landlocked kingdom of Lesotho in southern Africa.” –The Guardian (UK). Cleveland premiere. Subtitles. 120 min.
