A true classic of guerrilla filmmaking, Mapantsula has been newly restored after years of suppression, marking the 30th anniversary of South African Freedom Day in April 2024.

Now one of the most important and influential films to ever be produced and exported out of Africa, it was directed by Oliver Schmitz who worked closely with co-writer and lead actor Thomas Mogotlane to produce a film under extreme censorship, bravely creating a radical and rare anti-apartheid feature film.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with director Oliver Schmitz and feature a pre-recorded archive interview with actor and co-writer Thomas Mogotlane.
