Africa in Motion / Document 11: Beatrice Mtetwa Rule of Law

The only dedicated international human rights documentary festival in Scotland returns for its eleventh outing with a host of exciting screenings, panels, workshops, music and events. Taking place at CCA from Fri 18 to Sun 20 October, this year's programme focuses on reflection and tension between the past and present.

Beatrice Mtetwa and the Rule of Law features one of the bravest lawyers in Africa, Beatrice Mtetwa of Zimbabwe. In spite of beatings by
police, she has courageously defended in court those jailed by the Mugabe government: peace activists, journalists, opposition candidates, farmers hat had their land confiscated and ordinary citizens that had the courage to speak up.
