BLACK & WHITE LOVE

Is Apartheid an unjust system of Namibia’s past, or still experienced reality today? With wit and zynicism, this film explores institutional and personal racism and discrimination. It tells the story of Petrus Festus, whose life proves that skin colour does not determine success. It is a film about unity and equality.

This film was produced as part of ‘EinBlick’ (InSight) our trilateral intercontinental video exchange project that we developed in collaboration with the Goethe-Institut as part of their worldwide school network PASCH, to create a dynamic and growing platform that connects groups of students and their schools. EinBlick promotes and enables an intercultural dialogue through the medium of film.

In each country the students produce two short films that are entirely based on their choice of topic, filming skills and editing decisions.

Through the exchange of the films, the participants explore the lives of their partner groups, get to know each other through their differences and similarities learn from each other and question and discuss prejudices. Each trilateral exchange culminates in a final film, that is based on the dialogue and captures the groups discussions, their questions to each other and the answers.
