Summary:
"In the wake of one of the greatest failed social experiments in the history of mankind, this is one of the first historical documentary films to look at the legacy of Apartheid from the viewpoint of the Cape Coloured. It is about a people who in 1994 embraced the all encompassing Rainbow Nation concept of Bishop Desmond Tutu, but soon thereafter realized that freedom, privilege, economic growth and equal representation would not include them. It is about a people who question whether apartheid was an evil that kept them separated from the whites or a blessing that kept them separated from the blacks"--Container.
