Black Diamonds - South Africa’s emerging black middle class.

The film will document the lives of four Black Diamond’s, from a variety of backgrounds, over a 9 month period. We are focusing on people whose lives have changed radically since the democratic transition in 1994. As new opportunities have opened up, their attitudes and decision-making powers have grown exponentially. The film will look at 4 different life stages, an ambitious student about to graduate, a young professional fighting hard to climb the corporate ladder, a parent focused on providing the right opportunity for her newborn child and an older person who has achieved success and now casts a critical eye on a younger generation.

The documentary will demonstrate the conflicts and contradictions that shape these peoples lives, specifically: family, work, money and culture. All of them have known poverty before finding success. The success they have achieved in their careers has resulted in pressure on personal relationships with many of their contemporaries as well as family members.

This is a brief intro to one of our characters Miranda Puza.

The footage was shot last weekend in Johannesburg using a Canon 5D mk2, Canon 2.8L 16-35 Lens, Lensbaby Composer and Zacuto Z Finder. The music is by Vincent Gallo.
