Miners Shot Down

Acclaimed documentary about a massacre of 34 mineworkers in South Africa.

In partnership with Just Film Co-op, we present a powerful, award-winning documentary from South Africa. Made by one of the country’s leading directors, Rehad Desai, the film unfolds in real time over seven days, documenting a group of mineworkers as they strike for better wages. Six days into the strike the police move in, killing 34 of the miners and injuring many more.

Part of Film Bug, in partnership with and across Colmore Business District from 20-21 March.
