African School, BBC FOUR (UK, 2005, 8 X 30: 240 min.)
We are proud to present this important television programme which was shot in Uganda. This lively series from BBC FOUR captures the daily lives, concerns and personalities of young Africans and their teachers in the Ugandan town of Masindi.
Special Focus on:
Edward R, Murrow, Dennis Potter, Robert Altman including as a special feature in its entirety: Robert Altman’s Tanner ‘88 (USA, 1988, 353 min.)
In 1988, renegade filmmaker Altman and cartoonist Garry Trudeau created a presidential candidate: an obscure, very liberal, Michigan Democratic congressmen named Jack Tanner and his campaign slogan is ‘For Real’. This ‘mockumentary’ forms a devastating critique of the relationship between TV and American politics
