The award-winning film "This is Not a Burial, It's a Resurrection" speaks about rising up against displacement in Lesotho, and raises awareness about water access and resettlement.
What makes the film so special?
The film is very close to my heart. But its the director, Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese, is the ‘tour de force’ behind its success – and the reason why it pulls at the heartstrings of viewers from all over the world.
I believe the film’s narrative is a personal one for him. Could you elaborate on this?
Firstly, it is inspired by his grandmother who lives in a village that is right now on the verge of being forcibly resettled. But as a child Lemohang and his family were evicted from their home to make way for water infrastructure in Lesotho.
