I just attended the first soka afrika screening in joburg oct 2010 and was very impressed! The narrative is incredible, heartbreaking and illuminating. The characters are amazing, the visuals stunningly beautiful and the access second to none. I hate soccer yet really enjoyed seeing an intimate insight into the trials and tribulations of a young aspiring African footballer. Much better than Africa utd, this is not fiction it is reality, a great documentary! The juxtaposition of "right" and "wrong paths to footballing success can be seen in the context of the west's attitude towards Africa and serves to demonstrate that there is still a great deal of exploitation when it comes to African natural resources, whether diamonds or footballers. Look out for this one it's going to do very well in 2010! A must see particularly for doc lovers and those interested in the real Africa.
