Remembering John Marshall
Remembering John Marshall (2006, Alice Apley & David Tamés, 16 min.) is a short documentary that weaves together photographs, film clips, archival footage, and interviews with family, friends, and colleagues to present a brief portrait of John Kennedy Marshall (1932-2005) who spent fifty years documenting the lives of the Ju/’hoansi people of Namibia. Marshall began his filming in 1951 and in the 1980s became an activist helping the Ju/’hoansi fight for their land and water rights. Marshall produced over 20 films on the Ju’/hoansi beginning with The Hunters (1957) and culminating with A Kalahari Family (2003). The project began as an article Alice Apley and I wrote shortly after John’s death and then it evolved into a series of video interviews. Interviewees include: Elizabeth Marshall Thomas, Robert Gordon, Alexandra Eliot Marshall, Cynthia Close, Sandeep Ray, Karma Foley, Jayasinhji (Bapa) Jhala, and Rakhi Jhala.
