The Big Issue – Reflections

Two women live in Cape Town and yet in two utterly different worlds. Alison comes from the well-off downtown sphere whilst Nundomiso lives in a squatter camp far outside the city gates. The street magazine The Big Issue builds a bridge over the deep social gap that divides both women from one another.

Reflections is an image film for The Big Issue. I shot with it Anna Telford of Butterfly Films in May 2010 in Cape Town, South Africa. It won the MyTown Short film Award during the 2010 Encounters Film Festival in Cape Town. A longer version can be watched here: http://vimeo.com/12668755
