Punk in Africa Screening and Club Night at SVA 15th &16th May 2014
Three chords, three countries, one revolution… PUNK IN AFRICA is the untold story of the multi-racial punk movement within the recent political and social upheavals experienced in three Southern African countries: South Africa, Mozambique and Zimbabwe.
In these societies, the punk subculture represented a genuinely radical political impulse, playing out against a backdrop of intense political struggle,economic hardship and even civil war.
