About this Event
This Film Screening features Searching for Sugar Man, the acclaimed documentary telling the remarkable true story of musician Sixto Rodriguez, whose work became iconic in South Africa while he remained largely unknown in his home city of Detroit.
The film follows the journey of two fans who set out to discover what happened to the artist, uncovering a story of music, mystery, social change and unexpected cultural impact. As the story unfolds, the film becomes a reflection on how art travels, how meaning shifts across contexts, and how creativity can resonate far beyond its original place and time.
The screening will be followed by a facilitated conversation inviting reflection on the film’s themes of discovery, recognition, cultural exchange and the value of creative work.
This event forms part of Hidden Beach’s Summer of Culture programme and is held as a shared cultural moment — open, welcoming and accessible, with no specialist knowledge required to take part. It invites people to come together across communities to watch, listen and reflect on how stories, music and identity connect us in unexpected ways.
