In My Country

 

aka: Country of my Skull
UK / Ireland 2004, 103 minutes
Dir. John Boorman
Genres: Drama

Topics: Politics, Indigenous & Minority Cultures.

Feat. Samuel L. Jackson, Juliette Binoche, Brendan Gleeson

 

Aroview: One of the first stabs at dramatising the Truth and Reconciliation Commission hearings in South Africa, here used as a grueling backdrop for romance between a Afrikaner poet (Binoche) and a visiting black American journalist (Jackson).

While certainly airing some emotionally moving testimonies from the Apartheid era, and meditating on the nature of forgiveness, this finally is seen to retreat behind the insipid sentiments of its love story.
