William Kentridge
At 55, the white Jewish artist William Kentridge has a complicated relationship with apartheid. His film, “Ubu Tells the Truth,” depicts atrocities committed by the South African security police in a surreal style. Kentridge aims to find “the narrow band between remembering and forgetting” that allows South Africans to deal with the past. Produced by Kara Oehler.
