Given that Kojo are releasing <i>Martyrs</i> in September, it's unlikely I'll see it at MIFF.

Rough Aunties was on at awkward times at the SFF so I am hoping it will be more convenient at MIFF. The doco was shot in rural and suburban South Africa with some children's rights activists (five ladies, both black and white). <br /><br />What these ladies acomplish in the weeks of filming is staggering.
