The multi-award winning documentary, The Shore Break<\/em><\/strong>, about the proposed titanium mine and tolled highway on the Wild Coast, will be screened followed by a Q and A with the editor Kerryn Assaizky, at The Bioscope, in Johannesburg on the 28 August with daily screenings until 3 September. This is ahead of the launch of the DVD and Video on Demand sales, which begin on September 4.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Shore Break<\/em><\/strong>, directed by Ryley Grunenwald, and co-produced with Odette Geldenhuys, has garnered a series of top awards since it premiered at IDFA in Amsterdam earlier this year. Awards now include the Best Feature Length Documentary at the 2015 International Environmental Film Festival (FIFE) in Paris, the Backsberg Audience Choice Award from Encounters, the Amnesty International Durban Human Rights Award and the overall Audience Award from DIFF, and was nominated for Best Documentary at Silwerskermfees<\/a> taking place this weekend in Camps Bay.<\/span><\/p>\n

Described by the jurors of the Amnesty International Durban Human Rights Award as a \u201cpowerful portrayal of a struggle within a local community regarding foreign mining rights in a pristine environment\u2026(and) concisely and movingly uncovers this complex and urgent matter, which is still under investigation and in need of public support.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe are both delighted about these accolades, not only for ourselves but for the fact that these issues are being highlighted and the community\u2019s challenges are made visible to an external environment other than the one in which they exist,\u201d say Grunenwald and Geldenhuys.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is for this reason the two have made a decision to release the film as a DVD and on the Video on Demand platform Vimeo, as part of an endeavour to highlight the issues at play to a broader audience.<\/span><\/p>\n

From September 4, the film will be distributed via direct sale of DVDs in South Africa via www.theshorebreakmovie.com<\/a> for R100 for individuals and R1000 for organisations, institutions and associations who require a wider range of screening rights.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Shore Break<\/em> will also be available throughout Africa for Video on Demand online rentals via www.theshorebreakmovie.com<\/a> or vimeo.com\/ondemand\/theshorebreak<\/a> also from September 4. Pre-orders are available now.<\/span><\/p>\n
