Screening: Truth Be Told – Prisoner in My Mind by Enver Samuel

Governance and Human Rights

On Thursday, 11 September at 17:30, Dibukafé will host a screening of Truth Be Told – Prisoner in My Mind, directed by Enver Samuel.

This is the fifth instalment in Samuel’s acclaimed documentary series revisiting apartheid-era atrocities and the legacy of South Africa’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission. The film tells the story of Richard and Irene Motasi, executed in their home by a security police hit squad in 1987, and their son Tshidiso, who survived by hiding in a cupboard. Decades later, he continues to confront the trauma of that night, while the case remains under investigation by the Hawks.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the director, with snacks and drinks provided.

Free entry; RSVP here.
