Whatever happened to the comrades of Soweto? Have they actually benefited from the changes they helped bring about? This week's beautifully filmed documentary takes you straight into their world. It's a world of gangs, violence and crime - where the police are too scared to patrol the streets and the early optimism has been replaced by despair. Made by renowned filmmaker Marion Mayer-Hohdahl and interspersed with poignant archive, this film provides a fresh look at the generation left behind.
