WISHING US AWAY
Jerry Marobyane became involved in the struggle against apartheid at the age of 14. The violence he experienced during that time has left him deeply scarred. Nearly two decades later he tries to exorcise the ghosts of the past by attending a unique eco-therapy camp for ex-combatants. This is the beginning of his journey to re-claim his life and come to terms with the past.
