Faith's Corner

Darrell James Roodt weaves the tale of an impoverished mother named Faith who travels to a Johannesburg street corner each morning with her two sons, Siyabonga and Lucky. Roodt filmed the picture with an ancient, hand-cranked camera and dated film stock to give it a yellowed aesthetic. Philip Glass scored the picture, and interlaces the music with sound effects to coincide with many of the images.
