The following new films have been received
and are available for loan through the library:

LAST GRAVE AT DIMBAZA

The second film on South Africa by Nana
Mahomo, producer of "End of Dialogue".

Filmed under the same conditions more recently,
it has won 6 international awards for good
reason. The film shows how whites in South
Africa enjoy one of the highest standards

of living in the world, how foreign companies
make huge profits exploiting Africans as

a source of cheap labour. Dimbaza is a
resettlement camp in one of the so-called
"black areas" in South Africa where women
and children not needed by the white economy
are sent. These are the people labelled as
"superfluous appendages" by the government.

BIRTH WITHOUT VIOLENCE

When babies are born the first thing they

do is cry. Why? Why don't they just breathe?
Could it be that being born is painful even
agony for the child just as giving birth

used to be for the mother? This film demon-
strates the LeBoyer method of childbirth.

VOLLEYBALL

An encounter between Russian and American
volleyball teams, presented more as an essay

in the choreography of the players’ movements
than as a play-by-play report of a sports
event. Various camera tricks are used to
dramatize the action, notably stop-motion

that freezes the ballet-like leaps and postures
of the players. The film has jazz backgroung
music.
