SA co-produced short nominated for an Oscar
The film is written and directed by Steve Pasvolsky of the Australian Film, Television and Radio School, produced by Joe Wetherstone and co-produced by South Africans Platon Trakoshis and Steven Markovitz of Big World Cinema. The film was shot on location in Franschoek, South Africa and stars South African actors Anele Vellom, Danny Keogh, Lizo C. Makambi and Terry Norton.
Shot on 35mm colour film, the short tells the story of a Xhosa boy in the old South Africa who is used as a pawn by a white farmer to 'train' his puppy. Ten years later in the new South Africa, both their lives lie in the balance at the mercy of the fully grown dog.
The Oscar® ceremony will take place on Sunday 23 March 2003.
