Ernest Cole: Lost and Found
2024 | B/N | 105:00

South African photographer Ernest Cole was the first to expose the horrors of apartheid to a world audience. His 1967 book House of Bondage, published when he was just 27, led him into exile in NYC and Europe for the rest of his life. Peck recounts his wanderings, artistic turmoil, and anger at the silence of the West in response to the apartheid regime. He also recounts how, in 2017, 60000 negatives of his work were found in a Swedish bank.

The Young Karl Marx

Karl Marx, age 26, lives in exile in France with his wife Jenny in 1844. There he meets young Friedrich Engels: a bourgeois man who shares his sense of humor, has just written about the growing destitution of the English proletariat, and is in love with a spinner and rebellious member of the labor movement. As comrades in arms, the two men—with Jenny’s help—draft the Marxian texts that will unleash the revolution.
