Hotly-billed South African film, Sew the Winter to my Skin, continued its impressive run yesterday, screening to rave reception at the ongoing Pan-African Film and Television Festival of Ouagadougou (FESPACO).
The film about an unlikely black hero in mid-century apartheid South Africa has been arguably one of the highly anticipated pictures at this year's festival, at least going by the droves of moviegoers who packed the Cine Burkina cinema for the late evening screening.
