We are delighted to present a screening of two film-essays by Rangoato Hlasane – Sesasedi Sa Tsodio and Sa Koša Ke Lerole.
Sesasedi Sa Tsodio delves into the kwaito DNA and its multiple umbilical cords searches for and celebrates the musicality of leleme la MaAfrika – sonic and phonetic aesthetics of black world making. The character of Tsodio as lyrical fiction/mythology travels through orature and storytelling in black musical and sonic histories of the past, present and future. Traveling banners, thinking and sounding with three locations – Meadowlands, Mamelodi and Mahikeng – serve as backdrops for oral histories with “people as libraries”, on site.
Sa Koša Kerole is an interdiscursive mix between an essayistic video, a documentary, an appendix and feature film with elements of the music video, driven by oralities. The main content of the feature length film is a selection of responses from ‘Sesasedi sa Tsodio’ screening tours that took place at the very sites of filming Sesasedi sa Tsodio namely: Mamelodi, Mahikeng and Meadowlands.
Join as at Chimurenga Factory (157 Victoria Rd, Woodstock), Friday 15th March from 7pm.
Rangoato Hlsane will be in attendance.
