About This Event
French documentary filmmaker Emmanuel Gras won the 2017 Cannes Critics’ Week grand prize with Makala. It tells the story of a young man who lives with his wife and his child near Kolwezi in the southern region of Democratic Republic of the Congo. He struggles to make living by chopping trees and carrying them with his wobbly bicycle to the market where he can sell them. Faculty introduction by Dr. James Kiwanuka-Tondo. In partnership with NC State’s Office of Global Engagement.
