LETTRES DE FIN D'APARTHEID

un film de Corinne Moutout - Société

10 years after the advent of the new South Africa, this film is a survey of the vast process of reconciliation undertaken in the country. From Johannesburg to Cape Town via the Karoo region, from a post office to a soup kitchen, from a farm to a municipal swimming pool, we discover all the contradictory emotions that South Africans feel in relation to their current concerns: forgiveness, awareness of others, fear, violence... And, in so doing, we move from surprise to incredulity, from enthusiasm for the foreseeable success of reconciliation to fear for its scheduled failure.
