Working Together

Jan 01, 2021
Working Together, the title of my documentary/sequel to my father’s film, traces the consequences and questions that were implied in Woodcutters. My father’s intuition about the importance of what was happening during the filming of Woodcutters once again shows his political instinct. Inherent in the original film is not only the question of Black and white working together, but what happened to the civil rights movement in the 70s and its destruction. - Michael Rogosin

Almost 50 years after Lionel Rogosin made Arab-Israeli Dialogue, his son revisits the same topic. Following his father’s footsteps, his first journey leads to friends and co-workers of the participants in this unusual shooting. His second journey guides him to places where the historical and contemporary disputes, discussed in the film, took place. Here the director tries to document the development of the complex situation since Amos Kenan’s and Rashed Hussein’s discussion in New York, and find out if their bold words about peace and friendship between the two nations sharing one state became the reality.

Interwoven with clips from the original film "Come Back Africa", the late Lionel Rogosin tells the story of how he penetrated Sophiatown, Johannesburg during the iron rule of the apartheid regime. In what develops like a political thriller, An American in Sophiatown is one of the most damning portrayals of this police state.
