-- Dir. Janaína Nagata - 91min - 2022 - Brazil --
In 2018, Brazilian artist and filmmaker Janaina Nagata stumbles upon a 16mm footage acquired online. The unassuming footage captures scenes from a white family's trip to South Africa during the 1960s. The seemingly innocent images lead to an insatiable investigation. Through a meticulous desktop sequence, Nagata examines the footage, dissecting the clues and signs embedded within this private and anonymous archive. Juxtaposing the analog material with digital resources, the film uncovers hidden narratives of Apartheid and South Africa's troubled past.
