Recently we took it upon ourselves to give you awesome South
African film news, and let you know about some of the exciting projects that
are being developed right under our nostrils.
82 is such a extraordinary film, that is being developed by
extraordinary people right here in South Africa (Check Out The Trailer Below).
The films synopsis as described by the 82 team: “82 is a ten
minute, stylized drama film. The scenes of which all take place in a prison
camp and will tell of a story which echo’s and represents experiences of many
people from many different communities spread out over many continents. And we
believe that by straying from the political subject that often takes center
stage and draws focus off the people that suffer, perish and sometimes survive
the experiences of war.

In this film we reflect life inside of a concentration camp
and the confinement of war but also showing the barrier that keeps the outside
world, its politics and diplomacy from making any changes to the lives of those
people who have been jailed. For this to be successful we need to create a world,
which isn’t quite simple, where survival dominates all else and decisions are made
to benefit the individual.
We are showing that war affects all that are involved and
that sometimes what happens in war and the things that people do are not always
due to ethnic backgrounds, religions or nationalities ... but sometimes
personal and selfish gain.”
The film is being developed as a 10-minute short film with a
plan to take the film to different film festival, in South Africa as well as
International festivals as well. With
the aim of showing the film at these festivals in the hope of getting a studio
interested in order to attain the funds necessary to turn this 10 minute film,
into a full feature length film. We are thinking that they will be quite
successful in this regard.
