Azania

Azania is an expedition of hopes and disappointments. Storytelling, music and Artwork used in the production takes us on Bantu Africa’s journey that starts in the late 1980s. Following the devastating loss of his family by an angry mob that burnt down his family home on the suspicion that his father was a whistle blower for the apartheid government. Despite Bantu being a man with no political affiliation or struggle background, he returns in 1993 to find his 14 – year-old daughter missing. This takes place as South Africa enters its democratic dispensation, while he deals with the pain of losing his family.
