Solar Eclipse

Martin Mareček / Czech Republic / 2011 / 81 min.


synopsis

FilmAFRICA follows two Central Europeans on an adventure to Zambia to repair a village’s solar panels. They are aware of the value of their work, whose purpose they see in helping the villagers – these, however, are not satisfied with their lives. Black and white mindsets subtly, humorously, and touchingly collide.
