One Take Grace is a film that came about after a decade of spontaneous and imaginative archiving. It is a collection of experimental audiovisual poems documenting and interpreting the life of actor and domestic worker, Grace Mothiba Bapela, skillfully assembled by actress, director and writer Lindiwe Matshikiza. To mark the project’s transition from documentation to exhibition, the work had its world premiere in Grace Bapela’s home village of Ga Mothapo in Limpopo. Music composition, sound design and final mix by João Orecchia.
