. SYNOPSIS - CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION 

A 52 minute documentary film completed in June 2002, that follows
filmmaker Zola Maseko, as he tracks down five South African exiles
twelve years after their return home. 
In 1990, Zola Maseko and David Max Brown worked on a film in Tanzania
about South African exiles who were returning home to an uncertain
future.
Now in 2002 they find the same five characters. 
The film opens with Zola in Johannesburg 2002, looking at the old
archive from 1990. In narration he explains why he felt the need to look
for some of his old comrades and document their progress on film. 
This is a story of how exile shapes dreams and of the contradictions and
challenges that prevail. Children of the Revolution - is the story of
how some ordinary young people have exchanged the camaraderie of a
political life in the ANC for groupings and gangs of a very different
kind.
