About IN STITCHES

IN STITCHES follows three trailblazing South African comedians who are bringing their mother tongues to the stage. More than two decades after the fall of apartheid, 11 official languages thrive in South Africa. Despite this, English continues to dominate the comedy scene. Sixty percent of the population cannot understand a word. IN STITCHES has been selected for the 2018 Encounters South African Documentary Film Festival.

Hannah Rafkin and Meg Robbins co-directed and co-produced IN STITCHES, their first documentary. They are no strangers to working together, though-after meeting as freshmen in Film 101 and realizing they share a birthday, they soon became best friends and creative partners. Both Hannah and Meg are experienced storytellers, with backgrounds in print, digital, and photo journalism. They graduated from Bowdoin College in 2017 and spent a semester in Cape Town in 2015.
