Grieving and alone following the deaths of her husband and children, elderly Mantoa (Mary Twala Mhlongo, in a soul-shaking end-of-life performance) prepares for her own death and to be buried alongside her ancestors. When plans for a new dam near her village in the landlocked kingdom of Lesotho threaten to literally wash away all she holds dear, Mantoa takes a last stand, mobilizing her neighbors to fight for their land and their way of life. The experience of watching Mosese’s visionary, much-lauded This Is Not a Burial, It’s a Resurrection is as timeless and elemental as the land itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDIRECTOR-APPROVED TWO-DVD SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES\u003cbr\u003e\n• 2K digital master, approved by director Lemohang Jeremiah Mosese\u003cbr\u003e\n• New audio commentary featuring Mosese and producer Cait Pansegrouw\u003cbr\u003e\n• Mosese’s short films Mosonngoa (2014) and Behemoth: Or the Game of God (2016), along with his 2019 essay film Mother, I Am Suffocating.
