Mother, I Am Suffocating. This Is My Last Film About You.
Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese / LS, QA, 2019 / 76 min.
Mosese’s highly personal film is vibrant with evocative images and sounds and addresses the legacy of Christianity and colonialism in Lesotho.
The self-taught filmmaker Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese is a powerful new voice in cinema. His Mother, I Am Suffocating. This Is My Last Film About You vibrates with images, sounds and an undefined sense of anger and longing. A woman carrying a wooden cross on her back is followed by sellers, beggars, passers-by, outraged voices, and curious looks as she makes her way across the country.
