Encounters is an annual South African and international documentary film festival, and 2010 marks it’s 12th year running. Having received over 800 films from all over the world, the team selected just over 50 to showcase at this year’s event including international award winners and SA world premieres.
The festival started on 12 August and runs until 29 August so there’s still plenty of time to catch some thought-provoking cinema at The Bioscope in Johannesburg , as well as Labia on Orange and V&A Nu Metro in Cape Town.
Green films
This year the Encounters Documentary Festival includes ten excellent green films, including much talked about features like Dirt! The Movie and The Yes Men Fix The World. You can read about all ten films and their screening times and venues here.
I’ll be watching Earthchild and Unearthing the Pen this Friday, tickets are only R39 from Computicket – join me to support green documentary film!
