In the middle of the desert, BlackWoman is abandoned on a trailer, in a cage. Her captors have left her to die. But she is not ready to pass. She escapes, and walks through pestilence and persecution, from desert to mountain to city, to find ... more captivity. Those responsible are reluctant to relinquish their privileges, and BlackWoman, escaping once more, must find solace in her beginnings.
Winner of the Fipresci Prize at the Berlin Festival, the new film by Dutch-Australian filmmaker Rolf de Heer is a poetic, scorching work on race, identity, and the strength of will.
