As many of you know, our first feature documentary, A Snake Gives Birth to a Snake, has been screened in classrooms and theaters across the globe since its world premiere at the Durban International Film Festival last summer. The film has been met with critical acclaim and racked up various awards including two honorable mentions at the Woodstock Film Festival as well as the Fund for Santa Barbara’s Social Justice Award at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
Most recently, we screened the film back in South Africa at the Cape Town Holocaust Centre in partnership with the Institute for Justice and Reconciliation. It was by all accounts a moving evening made even more special by our panelists who spoke directly following the film–Dr. Alex Boraine, the co-chair of the South African Truth Commission along with Desmond Tutu; former TRC commissioner Mary Burton; and GAC members Yvette Hardie and Nick Boraine.
Thank you to everyone who attended the Cape Town screening, and, as always, thank you to all of you for your continued support.
Warmly,
Global Arts Corps
