International Film Festival: Tsotsi
The award-winning South African film Tsotsi, will be shown Friday, Feb. 15, as Valpo’s International Film Festival continues.
In the slums of Johannesburg, 19-year-old Tsotsi’s life has no meaning beyond survival until, after stealing a woman’s car one night, he discovers a baby in the back seat. The film follows Tsotsi as he brings the baby back to his home and finds his sense of empathy and humanity renewed. Tsotsi won the 2005 Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.
The screening will begin at 7 p.m. in Neils Science Center. Tickets are free for faculty and staff.
Dr. Charles Schaefer, associate professor of history, will lead discussion of Tsotsi following the screening.
