Outspoken

Spoken: Afrikaans/English/Xhosa. Subtitles: English.

How do poets speak truth to power? How can we reimagine who and where we are? How do we rebuild our sense of self through the medium of poetry in post-Apartheid South Africa? And what is it about poetry that makes it such a powerful vehicle for socio-cultural transformation? Outspoken explores the spoken word poetry scene in Cape Town.
