Tidemarks- Legacies of Apartheid
Dir: Sarah Abbott
Canada/ SA 2004
99 minutes
Ten years after the triumph over apartheid, four former activists deal with the
consequences of their dedication to human dignity with frustration humour and hope.
Canadian filmmaker Sarah Abbott?s intimate engagement with Cape Town residents
reveals the irony that many people who fought at the grassroots level for democracy
struggle for daily survival a decade after South Africa?s first all-race elections. TIDE
MARKS is an evocative collection of interviews, memories, observational footage, found
photographs and South African music that re-visits apartheid history and looks at
aspects of its present-day aftermath.
