Price of Life
Livets Pris
A political documentary through the eyes of Sara Lidman, about a South Africa where the events of the time cause her personal suffering too. This is not a portrait of an author but the story of a woman forced to make choices between the longing to write and the yearning for children and a partner, in an era of major turmoil. The film concentrates on a love affair that apartheid successfully sabotages. It is an emotionally powerful story, not just about the lives of women, but about life when love conflicts with political reality.
