Zambia Heads For The Moon In AFRONAUTS

While most of the attention around the Sundance lineup has gone to the feature programs there are - as always - a number of fascinating titles to be found among the short film selections, among them Frances Bodomo's Afronauts.

July 1969. It's the night of the moon landing. And a ragtag group of Zambian exiles are trying to beat America to the moon.

Yep, it's a period set alternate history of the space race. And the trailer - embedded below - is a really striking piece of work. Check it out.
