A TRIBUTE TO TERENCE DAVIES
South African movie lovers have only seen two of Terence Davies's great films on the big screen, namely The Neon Bible and The House of Mirth.
Terence Davies (10 November 1945 -) is an English screenwriter - film director, sometime novelist and actor. As a filmmaker, Davies is noted for his recurring themes of emotional (and sometimes physical) endurance, the influence of memory on everyday life and the potentially crippling effects of dogmatic religiosity on the emotional life of individuals and societies. Stylistically, Davies' works are notable for their symmetrical compositions, "symphonic" structure and measured pace. He is also the sole screenwriter of all his films.
Tribute to Idrissa Ouédraogo
The Cape Winelands Film Festival is proud to present a special focus this year on the work of an outstanding African filmmaker. While constantly seeking to expand African audiences for his work, Idrissa Ouedraogo also acknowledges the necessity of funding and audiences outside Africa.

A TRIBUTE TO ALAIN RESNAIS
The organisers of the CWFF in collaboration with the French Embassy, Culturesfrance, IFAS as well as UniFrance are delighted to celebrate the magnificent films by French master Alain Resnais. One of France’s most distinctive and highly regarded directors, Resnais was born in Vannes, France, in 1922. He studied at the L`Institut hautes études cinématographiques before starting a career as a film-maker in the mid-1940s, making short films. Of these, the most celebrated is Nuit et brouillard (1955), an eye-opening and devastatingly poignant documentary about deportations and Nazi concentration camps during the Second World War.
