I AM NOT A WITCH Q&A | BFI London Film Festival 2017

Описание: Director Rungano Nyoni joined the BFI's Tricia Tuttle on stage to discuss her First Feature Competition film, I Am Not a Witch.

Welsh-raised, Zambian-born Nyoni delivers a dazzling debut dark satirical fairy tale about a little girl accused of being a witch.In a Zambian village Shula, a small, silent girl with big eyes, is accused of being a witch. Her choice: join a travelling witch camp or become a goat. Thus begins Zambian-born, Wales-raised Rungano Nyoni’s dazzling and audacious satirical fairy tale. Choosing to join the troop, Shula (a startlingly impressive Margaret Mulubwa) is placed onto a flatbed truck alongside witches with long ribbons streaming down their backs, attached to spindles which ensure their captivity. Shula’s big eyes remain inscrutably calm, even when she is subjected to the bizarre absurdities of being a tourist attraction in a travelling freak-show.

Director-Screenwriter: Rungano Nyoni | Producers: Emily Morgan, Juliette Grandmont, Titus Kreyenberg
With Margaret Mulubwa, Henry Phiri, Nancy Mulil
