LIFE, ABOVE ALL

June 29th, 2011

LIFE, ABOVE ALL- 2010. Synopsis by Netflix. “In a tiny village near Johannesburg, 12-year-old Chanda (Khomotso Manyaka) is left to care for two younger siblings when her infant sister dies and her mother becomes gravely ill. But this isn’t the only challenge she faces; the town has turned against her. Rumors that her family carries a deadly disease have made Chanda a pariah. This indictment of small-town gossip was an Official Selection of the 2010 Cannes Film Festival.” Great professional reviews but only average viewer responses. TRDB.

12/9/11- I liked this movie very much and I think that the young girl who plays Chanda is magnificent. TRDB. Netflix.
