Steps for the future Fulbright in Namibia

This first installment is a trailer for award winning director Cecil Moller’s 26-minute documentary House of Love. Mollers work is part of Steps for the Future, a collection of films about how individuals are living their lives with the HIV/AIDS virus in six Southern African countries. The trailer helps set the context for development of a video series focusing on the AIDS crisis in Namibia. Surrounded by vast expanses of desert and sea, the small Namibian harbour of Walvis Bay is the unlikely setting in which filmmaker Cecil Moller explores the lives of sex-workers. Dependent for their business on the frief visits of foreign shipping trawlers to this remote port, the women five revealing insights into the choices they have made and why they have made them. Their conflicts with notions of love, sex, sin and redemption become the main themes, while the threat of HIV/AIDS hangs ominously in the background.
