The Pioneer of Paraguay| 15mins
Director: Lisa Swart | Producer: Lisa Swart
Focus Years: 2009 | Country: South Africa
Synopsis:
The Pioneer of Paraguay is a glimpse into the life of Louis Nel. Now 80 years old, he immigrated to Paraguay from South Africa in 1975 leaving behind a life and a family to begin again. Louis Nel is one of many Afrikaners who emigrated to dictator Stroessner’s Paraguay in 1975 after the reciprocal state visit by JB Vorster. Many left, but Nel remained, integrated yet alienated. This disturbing piece shows him as he manages to recall “Die Stem†on the organ, reveal his son’s faltering Afrikaans, and point the way to a distant South Africa from his rooftop.
