Description de l'ouvrage:
"This is the first time I ever read an academic tome and felt―yelp―moved, touched, sad, and actually kind of cleansed and re-inspired." ―Andrew Worsdale, South African actor, director, and journalist

"This book combines so much useful material in film studies, it easily becomes an absolutely must have for students, directors, historians, theorists, stakeholders, audiences, government agencies, and so much more.... If one must choose just one book about South African cinema, for introductory or advanced scholarship, this one would be it." ―Addamms S. Mututa, University of Johannesburg

"The complete history packaged into a single monograph.... [It is] a much-needed guide to the historical and present conversations shaping the field." ―Siyasanga M. Tyali, UNISA

Both a history and a critique of South Africa's film industry, this book recounts the long experience of filmmaker and producer Richard Green.

Green's story―especially his work in forging the film initiative New Directions Africa―is emblematic of the struggles, negotiations, and competing ideologies that faced South Africa as it emerged from apartheid. He continues to be an essential part of what is now a burgeoning industry that not only supports the creative work of Africans, but is also seen as having an important role in the nation-building process.
