The Great Dance

Indymedia Cinema in the upstairs bar @ The Ritzy, Brixton

Filmed through the eyes of !Nqate, a hunter and one of the Kalahari Desert bushmen, "The Great Dance" follows the life of !Nqate as a hunter and tracker. It’s a raw and poignant story of !Nqate’s survival, as told in his own words. Its use of specially-adapted mini-cam technology and never-before-seen footage of the death-defying 'chasing hunt' for which Kalahari Desert Bushmen are famous, makes this a unique and remarkable cinematic experience.

'BEING SAN' fills in the social and political background to the lives of bushmen today. It is intimately connected to the first film, because it follows a San couple showing THE GREAT DANCE to other bushmen. It is a rare, humbling, and inspiring opportunity to see the reactions of a people portrayed in the film.

Plus speakers and short film from Survival International on the current situation of San Bushmen and other indigenous peoples.
