An Angel behind the Camera, Filming "Angels in the Dust": An Interview with Activist Filmmaker Louise Hogarth
Huber-Warring, Tonya
Multicultural Education, v14 n3 p22-26 Spr 2007
South Africa, a country with the highest incidence of rape and child rape in the world, has the fifth highest prevalence of HIV in the world, with 1.1 million AIDS orphans. The UNAIDS Global Report reveals 370,000 AIDS-related deaths in South Africa in 2003. Given the numbers of people infected and dying, South Africa is regarded as having the most severe HIV epidemic in the world. This pandemic is estimated to be several years away from peaking in terms of the numbers of projected AIDS-related deaths with a projection of 75-100 million affected by 2010. In this interview, activist filmmaker Louise Hogarth tackles the issue on HIV/AIDS through her film entitled "Angels in the Dust." (Contains 12 notes.)
