Title: A bleak portrait of a nation in crisis
Product review: If you are looking for a general overview of South Africa's landscape and peoples, skip this and buy the "Video Visits" production instead. "Capetown" seems to be concerned mainly with the country's racial strife and chaotic political situation shortly after Nelson Mandela came to power. It includes many interviews with South African whites and blacks from various walks of life, who are allowed to speak their minds freely. However, be warned that a strong anti-white sentiment permeates throughout (it's a PBS production), and the viewer is left disappointed without any introduction to the African tribal or Afrikaner cultures.
