American Legend: in South Africa

By Ineke Sugiarto

Chandler Perry Weisman is a prodigal son of a wealthy Mink Fur Manufacturing Company in New York, who has no interest in joining a family business, but is very much aware of his privileges, and what money can buy. In spite of his father's wish for him to do something meaningful for his life, he is not in a hurry to pull up his sleeves, until nature decides to throw him in the middle of White African Temporary Housing Settlement in South Africa, facing poverty and violence. His life turns upside down and in the hands of a nineteen year old poverty stricken young man name Yan Bastion, a victim of post-apartheid, who is desperate to get out of poverty and creates a better future for himself and all the children and young people regardless the colour of their skins. It is an impossible dream? The wealthy and the poor meets, and their chance to get out of the ditch depend on each other. American Legend in South Africa captures the struggles of being oneself, true-friendship and questions our contributions to the world. It's an adventure with a message.
