A documentary portrait of a photographer who revealed the cruelties of South African Apartheid to the world, by the director of I Am Not Your Negro.
Raoul Peck’s film is an intimate documentary portrait of the photographer who paid the price for revealing to the world the true horrors of apartheid in South Africa. Ernest Cole was the first Black freelance photographer in South Africa. His powerful record of the degradation of his people under Apartheid led to his exile.
This poignant homecoming hymn restores his legacy, offering an essential story in the ongoing fight for equity and human rights.
The 3.00pm screening on Sat 29 March will be followed by a pre-recorded Q&A from BFI Southbank with director Raoul Peck, photographer Misan Harriman and journalist Ekow Eshun.
"Raoul Peck weaves together a compelling narrative... a gripping portrait of a great observational photographer who was unappreciated in his lifetime." The Arts Desk
