Ho Ea Rona
(We Are Going Forward)
by Dumisani Phakathi, Sesotho Media, 17 minutes, Lesotho
Ho Ea Rona (We Are Going Forward) is a short film about four friends: Thabiso was a national boxer; Thabo, known to his friends as Kwasa Kwasa, is a DJ; Bimbo, a true intellectual, is a man of short sentences; and Moalosi an AIDS activist. All four are HIV+. They meet to reflect on their lives, to cry, to reminisce - but also, most importantly, to laugh.
Tsoga
by Sechaba Ramotoai, 8 minutes, South Africa
A Soweto school made headlines after 70% of their students were reported to have tested HIV+. Ignorance and fear became the agents for discrimination. Years later, Joyce, an ex-student shares her experiences of being raped as a young girl and suffering discrimination after testing HIV positive. Having overcome the challenges posed by her HIV status, she provides a source of guidance and encouragement.
