Summary |
21 Up South Africa offers insights into the social and political changes occurring throughout the country since the fall of Apartheid. First filmed as fourteen 7-year-olds in 1992, these youngsters are ordinary South Africans growing up at a time of enormous social change. We see them now at age 21 making their way in the new South Africa, as well as flashbacks from their interviews when they were 7 and 14.We see when they started in township slums, old school mansions and white suburbs, their world divided along racial lines as the policy of Apartheid began to crumble. While the fall of Apartheid presented them with new opportunities, it also confronted them with new challenges. (From the US, in English) (Documentary) |
