Ernest Cole: Lost and Found (AD) (15)

Parent & Baby Screening

,Cinema 3

Raoul Peck's touching film-documentary of Ernest Cole, the photographer to expose the horrors of South Africa's apartheid to the world.

Raoul Peck (I Am Not Your Negro) writes, directs and produces a documentary retelling Ernest Cole's story as the first Black freelance photographer in apartheid South Africa.

Cole, voiced by LaKeith Stanfield (Atlanta, Sorry to Bother You), powerfully recorded the lives of his people and the violence, racism and trauma they endured. Presenting these findings to international media led him to be exiled from South Africa. Forgotten and homesick, Cole would live out the rest of his days in Sweden and the US before dying of cancer at the young age of 49.

This film restores Cole's legacy, cementing him as one of the most important chroniclers of Apartheid politics.
