The much-anticipated local horror satire film, Mlungi Wam, will be coming home this October. Fresh from its run at the Toronto International Film Festival. Mlungu will be screened in Cape Town from 20 October – Just in time for Halloween.
Director and Co-Producer Jenna Cato Bass said, “Watching a lot of horror movies, I was struck by how few films in the genre touch on the ordinary everyday horrors in our society. I’m referring to the horrors of poverty, disease, homelessness, landlessness, racism, disempowerment and oppression. The horror genre can be an immensely powerful tool for both social critique and thought-provoking entertainment.
