Win R10 000 With The Acclaimed Karoo Sci-Fi Film, Wesens!
The South African Karoo Sci-Fi film WESENS, which currently exclusively available on DStv BoxOffice, is bringing film lovers a first-of-its-kind film analysis competition where they can win BIG cash prizes.
The creative agency The Suits and LitNet are looking for a critical analysis of WESENS, the award-winning Karoo science-fiction film that was released in South African cinemas in October last year and it is now available exclusively on BoxOffice by DStv.
They ask for more than a conventional movie review. What they are looking for is a critical analysis where you examine the film and share your insights and interpretation of the themes and symbolism within it.
You do not have to recount the plot of the film, rather focus your analysis on how the metaphors, analogies and cinematic techniques that was used, add to your interpretation of the themes, symbolism and ultimate message of the film.
The competition is open to pupils, students and film lovers. The critical analysis of the film must be between 500 and 1 200 words and entries must be emailed with the subject line: “Wesens” to Izak de Vries at LitNet – izak@litnet.co.za
Cash prizes include a R10 000 first prize, a R3 000 second prize and a R2 000 third prize. Entries have to reach LitNet on or before 9 May 2021 to be eligible for a prize.
What is also extremely exciting, is that one of the judges for this unique film analysis competition is the renowned South African author and film critic, Leon van Nierop!
This sci-fi, mystery is set in South Africa in 1967 and follows four South African Intelligence Agents as they investigate an unidentified object that landed on a farm in the Karoo. They record their investigation with a Super 8 and 16mm camera, trying to solve a mystery that will keep you guessing until the very last line.
Visit LitNet or WESENS for more information.
