TheBioscope is proud to welcome back The Encounters South African International Documentary Film Festival. Tickets: R60 In Stitches & Kill or Die Dirs Hannah Rafkin & Meg Robbins | South Africa | 2018 | 48 minutes In a country with 11 official languages, stand-up comedy has long been overwhelmingly dominated by English and Afrikaans. This is changing. In Stitches follows three vernacular comedians on the circuit and shows how something as simple as being funny in one's home language can be a vehicle for social change. Kill or Die Dir: Suzanne Moody | South Africa | 2017 | 43 minutes A glimpse at the harsh world of comedy, Kill or Die follows four young comedians as they make headway in the local comedy scene. Candid moments, casual conversations and instances of comedic magic reveal both the vulnerabilities and resilience of each character in an industry that demands you lay yourself bare.
