Headlining this year’s festival is the local premiere of the documentary Influence, co-directed by investigative journalists Diana Neille and Richard Poplak. Influence profiles Lord Timothy Bell, the founder of the London-based PR agency Bell Pottinger that was revealed to have had a hand in stoking racial tension in South Africa via fake news, to the benefit of the Gupta family and former president Jacob Zuma.
