Jerusalema and Depictions of African Cities in Film

Excerpt from Don Mattera’s NFVF review:

“In Jerusalema, the Hollywood spectre almost consumes the narrative of South Africa’s urban cities... The ’foreign’ characters receive fleeting stereotypical treatment – just like some photographs on a wall; no origins, no history; no soul; just money, drugs, women bloodshed and death.”
