Film Screening: Sisters of the Wildreness
Date and time
When Five Young Zulu Women Venture Into The Wilderness, Their Lives Change Forever
About this event
Set in the iMfolozi wilderness, South Africa, in the oldest game park in Africa, Sisters of the Wilderness tells the story of five young Zulu women going into the wilderness for the first time in their lives on a journey of healing and self-discovery which serves as a reminder that we are intimately linked to nature and what we do to her we do to ourselves. The film also explores the plight of this primordial wilderness, which is severely threatened by open-cast coal mining on its border, and a rhino poaching calamity.
The film, a multi-award winning social impact feature-length documentary, is the foundation for an outreach and audience engagement programme which aims to re-connect audiences with wild nature, raise awareness to the value of nature to our well-being and help the efforts to save the iMfolozi wilderness, from the threat of unsustainable mining and illegal hunting of its rhinos.
We are thrilled to be screening this important film to a live audience at The Africa Centre. - the first time we are bringing an audience into our spaces in almost 2 years! Please note that tickets are very limited so do hurry and get yours.
