Carlos Reygadas’s 2007 film for Pietermaritzburg film club on October 2.
The Pietermaritzburg-based University film club resumes its screenings on October 2 with Carlos Reygadas’s 2007 film Silent Light. The film is set in a remote Mennonite community in rural Mexico, where the devout and hard-working farmer Johan, married to devoted Esther, has to face the fact that he has fallen in love with another woman.
The film is stylised and presented in what has been described as “a superbly controlled cinematic idiom”. Films are shown at 18h00 in the Centre for Visual Arts Lecture Theatre in Ridge Road, Pietermaritzburg. There is safe parking.
