Tswana Documentaries Frustrate Expatriate Audience

 Except for one documentary on veteran politician Motsamai Mpho which had some English subtitles, other films on former President Sir Ketumile Masire and the former opposition Botswana National Front leader Dr Kenneth Koma were in vernacular with no English subtitles.

It was evident the expatriates, particularly whites who turned up in large numbers for the screening, wanted to learn more about the celebrated African politicians. All the producer of two of the films, Moabi Mogorosi could do was to pass a joke about it, saying: "We will put in the English subtitles if they give us money for it."
