Latcho Drom
Shot in the glorious panoramas of widescreen CinemaScope, Latcho Drom (safe journey) follows the thousand-year migration of the nomadic Romani people. Beginning in Northern India and then traveling through Egypt, Turkey, Romania, Hungary, Slovakia, France, and Spain, each scene features members of the local Romani communities. Capturing both continuity and diversity from region to region, the film highlights music and dance, and, with very few subtitles, a sense of unrepressed joy in the face of struggles. Great Algerian-born French Romani filmmaker Tony Gatlif said about Latcho Drom, “I wanted to make a film that the Roms could be proud of—a film that wouldn’t make a slideshow of their misery. I wanted to write a song of praise to these people I love.” The film is nearly impossible to see outside of poor-quality bootlegs, so this screening is a rare treat! In Romani, Arabic, French, Hungarian, Slovak, Spanish, and Turkish with English subtitles. (103 mins., DCP)

South Africa, 1976. A protest in the Johannesburg township of Soweto leads to the deaths at the hands of the police of many black South Africans. One who disappears is the son of gardener Gordon Ngubene (Winston Ntshona), who turns to his employer, teacher Ben Du Toit (Donald Sutherland) for help. Ben, who lives with his wife Susan (Janet Suzman) and their children, finds out that Gordon's son, supposedly killed in the protest, was actually imprisoned and tortured. Then Gordon is arrested. Ben intercedes on his behalf and is then told by Stanley (Zakes Mokae) that Gordon has supposedly killed himself in his cell. Not convinced at all, Ben searches for justice, aided by journalist Melanie Bruwer (Susan Sarandon), at considerable threat to himself from the police, led by Captain Stolz (Jurgen Prochnow).
A Dry White Season, based on the novel by André Brink, was one of several films of the later 1980s dealing with apartheid, the system of racial segregation which held sway in South Africa from 1948 until it was repealed in 1991. This film is significant in another way, in that Euzhan Palcy became the first woman of colour to direct a film for an American major studio. Apartheid now belongs in the past (though with the far right on the rise, there's no grounds for complacency)
