Title: Abraham (2014) Post by: Trevor on May 04, 2015, 07:26:06 AM My good friend and mentor Jans Rautenbach's first film in nearly thirty years is having one of its' first South African screenings in July at the National Arts Festival, Grahamstown.
(https://www.nationalartsfestival.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/abraham-poster-groot.jpg) I should add that this isn't a religious film but rather an examination of the human condition in a tortured artist who tries to escape his horrible world and live out his life through the work of a filmmaker. It is thus truly and tragically autobiographical and biographical in tone. The selling line translates as If everyone listens but doesn't hear you, everyone looks but no one sees you.
