The film tells the story of both sides claiming the same land as their own. The Ndolilas family’s land was taken by the apartheid government in the 1970s without compensation, and ever since then they have been on a quest to get it back. Standing in their way are working class black homeowners who purchased portions of the Ndolila's land during apartheid. For the homeowners, the land and houses they have legally purchased are a reward for their hard work and the fulfillment of their hopes and dreams for a better life in the new democracy. For the Ndolilas, the land is part of their family legacy and hence deeply intertwined with their identity. Both sides have a legitimate right to the land, and the film encourages viewers to think about whose rights should prevail.
En 1969, l’imam Abdullah Haron fut enfermé et tué en détention au Cap. Leader de communauté, très apprécié, il tentait de faire prendre conscience à ses congénères, peu actifs, de la détresse dans laquelle ils vivaient sous l’apartheid. Durant les années 1960, l’imam Haron est devenu plus actif et a commencé à voyager à l’étranger pour soulever des fonds destinés aux familles pauvres. Mélangeant animation, interviews et archives, ce court-métrage explore les dernières années de la vie de l’imam et sa mort. Le récit est dit par son petit-fils, le réalisateur, à travers les yeux d’un enfant.
