Western 4.33 - A trucker’s heartbreak collides with Namibia’s colonial ghosts

Set against the vast, desolate roads of Namibia, this experimental documentary follows a truck driver struggling with the recent end of a relationship. As he drives through Luderitz, his journey takes on a new weight—the same landscapes were once home to Germany’s horrific concentration camps for the Herero people.

The documentary blends personal anguish with historical reckoning, using striking black-and-white visuals, fragmented soundscapes, and bold cinematographic choices to explore the echoes of colonialism. What begins as a story of individual sorrow expands into a powerful meditation on memory, loss, and the enduring ghosts of Africa’s past.
