Every year on the 2nd of January the streets of Cape Town, South Africa come alive when the city's mixed-race population celebrates the so-called Coon Carnival. Its roots go back to the emancipation of the slaves in 1834. "Cape Town Carnival" follows two troupes through planning and practice to the competition phase, where they will compete in a number of different events, and passions run high.
