Presentations
Born of a conversation between two women on a film set, One Take Grace is a reflection on a life and a country. Mothiba Grace Bapela, South African mother, housekeeper and actress, recounts her painful past and her struggle as a black woman. An inventive mosaic portrait, a poetic and poignant tale.
The film will be followed by a talk between the audience and the director, moderated by Maud Malengrez.
