The Best Films of 2015: NELSON MANDELA - THE MYTH AND ME

Every year, we open our doors with a special selection of the best films screened at The Bioscope the year before.

 

Before the madness of 2016 kicks in, here is your final chance to catch some of the films you might have missed or didnt have the time to watch in 2015.

 

Writer/director Khalo Matabane was an idealistic teenager with fanciful ideas about a post-apartheid era of freedom and justice when the great icon of liberation Nelson Mandela was released from prison. In a personal odyssey encompassing an imaginary letter to Mandela and conversations with politicians, activists, intellectuals and artists, Matabane interrogates for himself the meaning of freedom, reconciliation and forgiveness, and challenges Mandela’s legacy in today’s world of conflict and inequality.
