Coming to DC for a fifth year and in collaboration with a number of partners including the French and Canadian embassies, the Goethe-Institut, and Women in Film and Video, SILVERDOCS will present BEST OF INPUT, with an evening screening from INPUT 2008 Johannesburg.

Dir. Yunus Vally
118 minutes
2007
A documentary by, and about, Yunus Vally born in the 1960s into a Muslim family, during the height of Apartheid in South Africa. This idiosyncratic program chronicles Yunus’s attempts to make sense of his past as he examines the effect the discriminatory laws of the State – specifically the so-called Immorality Act that determined who you could love and the censorship regulations which clearly defined what was deemed desirable – had on his life.
