From Shack to the Constitutional Court sleepingg... - 318 views - 1 month ago
On May 14, Abahlali baseMjondolo traveled from the shacks of Durban to South Africa's Constitutional Court in Johannesburg. In a landmark case they argued that a provincial law known as the 'Slums Act' violates the constitution. They were joined at the court by the Anti-Eviction Campaign, the Landless Peoples Movement, the Rural Network and AbM Western Cape.

This is a mobile update from Christopher Nizza and Dara Kell, who are in South Africa on their first production shoot for the feature documentary film 'Dear Mandela'.

Music by Cupha Mbonambi.

About Me: Sleeping Giant is a filmmaking collective founded in 2006 by South African filmmaker Dara Kell and American media activists and filmmakers Christopher Nizza and Shivaani Selvaraj. We wanted to establish a new organism to advance years of anti-poverty organizing via the medium of documentary films. We have found that producing films with those most affected by harsh economic conditions has accelerated organizing efforts and worked as a bridge between groups who are disparate both geographically and ideologically.
