A New Country (2020)
How did we get from the euphoria of 1994 to the fractured South Africa of today?
Through forthright interviews with informal workers, politicians, academics, and artists, director Sifiso Khanyile (Uprize) traces our journey as a country over the past three decades, and looks at the state of the Rainbow Nation today.
A New Country earned a Special Mention at this year’s Jozi Film Festival, where it also won Best Director.
Encounters called the documentary “heartbreakingly insightful”.
