Prison Assault [REPEAT]
South African prison authorities have consistently ignored human rights abuses within over-crowded facilities, despite numerous commissions, petitions and inspectorates. Now the Department of Correctional Services faces what may be the largest damages claim yet instituted against it. It’s all thanks to jailbird Bradley McCallum.
The Clink
Once seated, there may seem nothing very remarkable about The Clink. It's a smart restaurant with relaxing music and mood lighting. However, to get to your table you’ll have to undergo a security check because The Clink is located inside one of Britain’s Super Prisons. The contrast between life inside and the luxury of the restaurant couldn't be starker. This film is the story of both - of the inmates who work in The Clink and are looking forward to release, and the chef who wants to help them turn their lives around.
Nigel’s Hillbrow [REPEAT]
Older generations romanticise about when they used to live in hip Hillbrow. But crime and grime have seen the more affluent seek sanctuary in the suburbs. So what made Nigel and Trish and their five young children want to leave leafy suburbia for this concrete melting pot?
