Africa World Documentary Film Festival 2013: AUDIENCES CHOICE AWARDS: Dear Mandela Dara Kell (93m, South Africa, USA) When the South African government promises to eradicate the slums and begins to evict shack dwellers far outside the city, three young friends who live in Durbans vast shantytowns refuse to be moved and decided to stand up for their rights. Dear Mandela follows the journey of these three young people from their shacks to the highest court in the land as they invoke Nelson Mandelas example and become leaders in a growing social movement. By turns inspiring, devastating and funny, the film offers a new perspective on the role that young people can play in political change and is a fascinating portrait of South Africa coming of age. https://youtube/watch?v=PPc62K9su_k
