Those who know their Bible may find elements of this South African tale - highly Old Testament in nature, even if it does deal with more modern issues - familiar. A scrutiny of the patriarchy, it employs elements of the tale of Isaac and his sons, although the outcome is somewhat different.
London-based writer/director Nakhane has made a name for himself as a musician but many may be familiar with from his acting days when, under the name Nakhane Touré, he took on one of the lead roles in The Wound). With B(l)ind The Sacrifice, he creates an immersive atmosphere from the start, as a family gathers round a fire at night. The mother (Nandi Nyembe) and father (Treasure Nkosi) are speaking about God and the need to obey him, even as their son (Sihle Mnqwazana) is sneaking off to drink alcohol in one of the tents.
