• This project explores the tumultuous public life of young people in the gang governed Cape Flats area of Cape Town, South Africa. Making our way home from school is a simple, nostalgic, universal activity Together we walk to and home from school avoiding the daily threat of gang crossfire. Dialogue forms as cameras change hands between myself and the youth— a partnership to produce material which offers a rare insight into their confusing and challenging world of adolescence.
