Abstract *Today The Hawk Takes One Chick* captures day-to-day life in a rural society on the threshold of simultaneous collapse and reinvention. The Lubombo region of Swaziland suffers from the world*s highest prevalence of HIV and the lowest life expectancy. This observational film is told from the poignant perspective of three grandmothers (gogos) who have become instrumental in defining a new world order in the fight against the spread of HIV. As the stakes of each day heighten, gogo Albertina asks: *What will happen when all the gogos are dead?*.
LanguageIn Siswati (Swazi) and English with English subtitles.
