Summer Flowers
In 1969, in Botswana, Bessie Head built her house, Rainclouds, with the proceeds from her first novel ‘When Rainclouds gather’. [...] Today Head's house is a Botswana national heritage site and this film attempts to thread together, her voice, her writing, her spatial practice and her conversation with the work of Sol Plaatje. It is within this context that we give thanks to Bessie Head, to Sol Plaatje, to prophetic constructions such as Rainclouds and Boiteko Garden, and to the people who made them.
