The Beautiful Struggle

A brand new view of Africa, full of confidence and attitude: this is street style in South African Townships. Style - the way to a better life. South Africa's townships burst with creativity. They are the meeting-place for traditional African culture and global youth cultures. The Beautiful Struggle depicts this encounter. Hip-Hop culture has reached South Africa and is reinterpreted according to local conditions. Styles in fashion, dance and music are a way out of poverty. Tomorrow's global subcultures are born in the big cities of the Third world.
