This project explores the tumultuous public life of adolescents in the gang governed Cape Flats area of Cape Town, South Africa. A country with the greatest social divide in the world.
Young people anxiously tread dirt and asphalt, considering invisible boundaries which bring the very real and consistent threat of death by crossfire.

Rather than solely documenting their experiences we share film cameras, explore low fi analogue techniques and manifest poetry. This collaborative approach produces material which offer a rare insight into their confusing and challenging world of adolescence.
