Don’t Be Late For My Funeral – Intro Video from Silver Bullet Films on Vimeo.
A couple of months ago Aden spoke to a representative from S.W.I.F.T (Sisters Working in Film and TV) ahead of their trip to the Berlin film festival. The #HeartBreakfast team caught up with one of the delegates again, Diana Keam, who’s currently working on a biographical documentary feature film about the mother, within a South African context and from her perspective as a white South African growing up in Apartheid South Africa, who was ultimately raised by the family’s black housekeeper, Margaret Bogopa Matlala.
Take a listen to the podcast below. Margaret and Diane join Aden Thomas in studio.
