AMANENE (GENTLEMEN)

By Maggie Mercier

With Maggie Mercier, Director

From the township of Khayelitsha to the downtown of Cape Town, the members of the a cappella band Major Voices open the doors of their daily life between contrasts. Assisting the director with the camera, they introduce us to their lifestyle and share their vision; nine young voices that spread hope, love and smiles to brighten the future. They take us to a colorful, rhythmic and authentic journey into a South African reality full of hope.
