The Steps for the future documentary film project began in 2000, as
a shared journey by talented African filmmakers and well-known
professionals from around the world. The experience of the North
combined with the knowledge of the South was an auspicious fusion
that helped create 38 unique films. It was also the catalyst for
new documentary projects such as Why Democracy? All the films
produced dealt with the question of death and the enormous problem
of HIV and AIDS in Southern Africa. Films that millions of people
have seen worldwide, that have received awards from Cannes to
Zanzibar, and - dubbed into local languages - are still used
throughout southern Africa. Steps by steps provides an honest and
thorough picture of the process, step by step. Detailed accounts of
the logistics of making the series are mingled with reflections on
the art of direction, working with other people and the reality of
the lives of those people affected by HIV and AIDS. Steps by steps
gives a rare behind-the-scenes look at the making of documentary
films and the building of a worldwide project, complete with its
problems and triumphs, mistakes and unique results.
