Ernest Cole: Lost and Found

Opened Friday, November 22, 2024

SHOWTIMES AT IFC CENTER

Saturday, November 23 at 6:30 p.m.: Q&A with director Raoul Peck

South African photographer Ernest Cole was the first to expose the horrors of Apartheid to the world. His 1967 book House of
Bondage, published when he was only 27, led him into exile for the rest of his life, never to find his bearings. Raoul Peck’s (I Am Not Your Negro) new film recounts his wanderings, his turmoil as an artist and his anger at silence and complicity in the face of the horror.

A Magnolia Pictures release.

“A penetrating portrait… Cole captured something essential.” — Variety
