Ημερομηνία προβολής: Ιούλ 04, 2010

The north-western parts of the country have long been home to some of South Africa’s most revered and often flamboyant storytellers, and Johnny Clegg is following their thread. From those who have magically spun yarns with words to transport us into other realms of experience and adventure, to artists whose rich visions allow us keys into other worlds of seeing, Johnny makes his way – partly onboard a hot air balloon – through this wonderfully imaginative bushveld terrain, from Mafikeng to Groot Marico, and Mabopane to the Magaliesberg, meeting some amazing storyteller artists, including Tommy Motswai, Titus Matiyane, Norman Catherine, Ma Grace Masuku, Egbert van Bart and John Moolman.
