To Die No More
James Goldcrown highlights the tragedy of the HIV/AIDS orphan status in Africa. We see James move around J’Burg visiting different homes that care for children who have been orphaned by the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Throughout the film, James interacts with various carers and volunteers at institutions and hospices as well as informal settlements. The aim of the film is to raise awareness globally about HIV/AIDS and to try to detach the long serving stigma that people affiliate with the virus.

Consumerism, racial discrimination, prostitution and the re-emergence of class divides. Hasta Siempre takes you on a journey through the lives of ordinary Cubans, and ask the forbidden question: can the revolution survive after the demise of Fidel Castro?Plus more
