Winner of Best South African Documentary at the Durban International Film Festival and heading to DOC NYC for its international premiere, From Dust We Spin takes audiences inside Spinning, a uniquely South African motorsport born of apartheid-era defiance. Join director Julia Jansch and featured subject and narrator Ricky Weaver for a Critics Choice Association conversation about grief, belonging, mentorship and the freedom found in motion.
 
Film Synopsis – On South Africa’s gang-ridden Cape Flats, an outlawed motorsport becomes the lifeline for a young female spinner at “zero” and her coach, who is desperate to break the cycles that nearly destroyed him. As she masters its signature figure-eight, the “infinity” move—her courage gives him the strength to finally let go.
