Under the Spotlight 62 with Ayden Croy & Chelsea Thomas

Loading player...
A feared gang leader is released from prison on parole after seven years. Everyone now wonders whether Map has changed or if he is still the same old Map. The drama takes place after the forced removals from Cape Town to the Cape Flats. It examines the impact of social and societal problems on the community and offers a glimpse into the lives of the displaced—their joys and sorrows, and their desperate longing for a better life.

Krismis van Map Jacobs explores social issues such as unemployment and poverty, which are still relevant today, as well as the search for identity and forgiveness. It also focuses on the scars that Apartheid left on the Cape Coloured community.
