Leonard Retel Helmrich: Through the viewfinder
Director and cinematographer Retel Helmrich is renowned for his distinctive camera work, particularly the ‘single' shot. He will talk about how cinematography contributes to the telling of documentary stories, and the technicalities of how he has achieved particular, seemingly effortless, shots.

Jeppe Rønde: Culture smash and grab
Is it ‘theft' when the ‘foreigner' comes here and tells ‘our stories' to the rest of the world? Is it that the foreigner sees the wonderful things that we just take for granted? Finds the gems to take back home? Should we cry, "Why didn't we do it first?" Rønde will elaborate on his experience of telling a South African tale.
