Sinopsis: | Edad recomendada por FICI +14 Cuando en 2008 estalló un brote de xenofobia en Sudáfrica, muchos se quedaron impactados por su violencia, que supuso una violación de los principios básicos de un país democrático. “¿Dónde me pongo?” es una ventana abierta a las vidas de siete jóvenes que analizan en profundidad sus actos durante y después de este brote violento. Entre ellos un refugiado Ruandés, una chica que lucha a diario en su ciudad con la realidad de los inmigrantes, un chico que afronta su cobardía, o una chica cuya familia dio refugio a su jardinero. “¿Dónde me pongo?” refleja el optimismo de una juventud que talla su propio lugar en un país complejo y dividido. When xenophobic attacks broke out across South Africa in 2008, many were shocked by violence that felt like a violation of the principles of their newly democratic nation. Where Do I Stand? is a window into the lives of seven young people thinking deeply about their actions during and after this violence. They include a Rwandan refugee, a girl wrestling with the reality of foreigners in her township, a boy facing calls of cowardice, a girl whose family sheltered their gardener. Where Do I Stand? captures the optimistic voices of youth carving out their own places in this complex and divided country. |
