Memento: A South African Artventure is a lively, energetic archival documentary that chronicles maiden voyage of several Afro-Canadian persons and their friends on an excursion to South Africa. Their journey sees the adventurers bridge the knowledge of Africa from second-hand information to a first-hand experience as seen through the eyes of Spoken word artist Dwayne Morgan and Dancer April Mullings. Their journey is facilitated by Ramie Veerappan, an 79-year vibrant activist who lived through the apartheid era, left the country and later returned to the new South Africa, a place she always loves but now wants to share with the world.
Memento: A South African Artventure will be featured at the upcoming Hamilton Black Film Festival 2021 on Sunday, May 30, 2021 at 7 p.m. Eastern. To get tickets, please click here.
