Tengenenge: Zimbabwe's Hidden Sculpture Community| 16mins
Director: Jacquelyn Lobel | Producer: Jacquelyn Lobel
Focus Years: 2011 | Country: United States
Synopsis:
In the north of Zimbabwe, at the foot of the great dyke, beside the ravines and grassy covered slopes, there lies a village called Tengenenge, rich in the many different tribes of the Zambezi river basin. All of the villagers are artists, who make their living by sculpting stone.
Like most Zimbabweans, these are difficult times for the artists. The impact of the economy has affected tourism, and in turn, there are hardly any visitors coming to buy art at Tengenenge anymore.
Against all odds, this community has continued to survive because of the passion of its people, energy and solidarity.
"Tengenenge" is a glimmer of joy and optimism in a country on the brink of collapse.
