ROBERT MUGABE... WHAT HAPPENED? plus Q&A at Hackney Picturehouse

ROBERT MUGABE... WHAT HAPPENED? plus Q&A with producer Michael Auret

Friday 24 February, 8.40

ROBERT MUGABE... WHAT HAPPENED? charts the Shakespearean rise and fall of the man who led a very successful African country, and then ruined it.

Mugabe was damned as a terrorist, then knighted by Queen Elizabeth, and is still in power more than 30 years later.

The film explores what happened through interviews with some of his closest associates.

It assembles a unique collection of southern African archive footage to powerfully evoke each of the decades of Mugabe’s rule.

This is a complex and compelling view of Zimbabwe the country and Mugabe the man.
