Daring documentary film festival in Cape Town
A new documentary film festival, by Flamedrop Productions, will be screened at The Labia Theatre, Cape Town from 29 July - 5 August 2010. Billed as a daring festival, the organisers state that the various brave and determined filmmakers pull no punches as they tackle subjects that affect us all and the planet we share.
