. The drama centres on Alexander Hoffmann (Leonard Scheicher), a young German anthropologist purportedly travelling through German South West Africa to collect artefacts for Berlin’s Ethnological Museum as the Ovaherero and Nama peoples rise up against German colonial troops. However, Hoffmann is, in fact, there to disprove the accepted evolutionist race theory and find the young woman Herero interpreter Kezia, who had been part of a delegation attending a colonial exhibition in Berlin. The second title is David Wnendt’s Sun and Concrete [+lire aussi :
