Dear Mandela
Dear Mandela, one of our partnering films, is directed by Dara Kell & Christopher Nizza:.When their shantytowns are threatened with mass eviction, three ‘young lions’ of South Africa’s new generation rise from the shacks and take their government to the highest court in the land, putting the promises of democracy to the test.
Be on the lookout for a short film on Dear Mandela on U.S. tour soon, depicting activists from Abhali Basemjondolo, the South African Shack-dwellers movement, meeting with grassroots US housing rights activists.
