The first serious analysis in film of a musical genre which serves both as a compendium of world dance music and a uniquely South African contribution to global dance culture. Since it burst onto the scene in the early ’90s, kwaito has become the most powerful articulation of the daily experiences and dreams of the first generation of black South Africans to come of age after apartheid. Detailed interviews with major musicians, producers and DJs, illustrated by choice clips, make for a highly entertaining and informative kwaito tour for newcomers and veteran fans alike.
